Hit the road to dreamland – Isabella Lundgren with trio. ”For one hour we will, with the help of timeless classics from the Great American Songbook, chuck ourselves into uncharted dreams, secret wishes and naive longing. When life hurts, and the ground is shaking beneath us, that’s when we need our dreams the most.”
Isabella Lundgren debuted in 2012 with the cd It Had to Be You, and she has since then done six more album. The most recent one was Out of the Bell Jar, from 2019. She has received many awards, for instance Sveriges Radio’s Jazzkatten (”The Jazz Cat”) in the category Musician of the year in 2015, and the magazine Orkesterjournalen’s Gyllene Skiva (”Golden Record”) for Somehow Life got in the way from 2014. She was nominated for Swedish Grammys in 2016 and 2019.
