About Me

I was born in Uppsala, and grew up in Varmland(middle of Sweden) living close to the nature with forests and a lakes as my great inspiration. I was an early singer, painter and writer of poems, played theater and started my career as a Cellist, performing solo and in various orchestras. After highscool I continued as a performing Jazzsinger. I felt a big eagerness to express myself in all kind of creative ways. But there was also a quiet, lonely and shy part of my personality and after a long bad period in my early twenties I started to write songs. Songwriting became my only lifesavior and ever since, I've been writing more than 600 songs in English & Swedish and Finally2006, my first album was released and I'm very happy about it :) My songs are inspired by the art of living, people, broken dreams & lonely hearts and going through all kind of changes. I've always recorded my songs first at home and love to arrange ideas and develop myself both as a singer-songwriter and as a producer. I've performed live on various stages with a guitar or with band. I have also been co-writing and participated on other artists album. I released my first EP in June, 2006 and my album was due to 12th of October, 2006....:))During 2006 I've been performing & touring around Sweden, Denmark, & Germany and my Album got a lot of good reviews and the singles "All this time" & "Honestly" has been frequently airplayed at Stockholm radio riks P4. 2007 the third single"Reckless Heart" was out on the radio out on the radio. Spring and early summer, I was Performing in Sweden ,Denmark at the Spot-festival and England I was supporting Iain Archer(Snowpatrol) and Jacob Golden(US). Now I'm working on Songs for my next album! and going on a small tour to England around Christmas. Read more about me:) www.josefinasanner.com
