First of all I would like to mention the musicians that are playing on the tracks on my Myspace-page: On "Sometimes I´m Happy" and "Lover Man" it is Krister Andersson tenorsaxophone, Göran Lindbergh piano, Ivar Lindell bass, Jesper Kviberg drums. On "Fula Da´r" Lars Åkesson guitar. "Up From The Skies" Krister Andersson tenorsaxophone, Göran Strandberg piano, Ivar Lindell bass, Henrik Wartel drums.Tessan Milveden is a jazzsinger from Scandinavia, born in Stockholm, living in Sweden. Music and singing has always been an element in her life.
She started playing the piano rather young. But after a while, singing took over. At first popmusic. But then she became more and more interested in jazz.
Tessans father is a famous Swedish classical composer. But although she didn´t grow up with him, music was still of a great importance in her upbringing.
Throughout the years she has been singing pop-blues-gospel-bossa, but mostly jazz.
She has also made a couple of songs of her own.
The most important thing for Tessan when she sings is communication and openess with her musicians and the audience.
She has performed at jazzclubs and other stages in Sweden and has been working with many wellrespected Swedish musicians.
"She has a radiance and capability to express jazz in a natural way,a talent beyond the average, warm and sophisticated." (Dalademokraten)
"Magical in "Lover man" with great improvisation." (Östersundskuriren)
"She has something special...she takes her place at the stage and invites the audience. Her voice is like flowers on a dinnertable. Full of brightness and colour. (Dalademokraten)
"She totally made my heart open up in her interpretation of Roger Ramirez-Jimmy Davis-Jimmy Shermans Lover man." (Östersundsposten)
