INGA LILJESTRÖM
…her voice, dark or bright, heartbreaking or stripped.
An album at once powerful, wild, intimate.
(Rolling Stone, France) ****
…an undeniable mastery in writing, composition, production, arrangements, visual
– a breath and power that does not evaporate, as do many others...
Between rock and cabaret Gothic, Inga Liljeström with her ominous incantations,
she reminds us that before her, another Australian came to Europe to impose his unique vision under high
influence of tortured crooner: Nick Cave.”
(Telerama, Hugo Cassavetti, France)
It tears us, this famous tremor in her voice like butterflies that travel furiously in our guts,
as does the delicate vocals pierce us.
The stories told by Inga are beautifully poignant.
A voice both poisonous and addictive, everything this artist touches turns to gold.
(Core and Co, France)
Something truly happens when beautiful voices of the north attack folk music
...an assault of fire and ice.
A small marvel of poetry who caresses as much as she cuts.
(Journal Ventrilo, France)
