The Rovaniemi-born singer Inga Söder has been on the scene already for ten years, and her CV includes collaborations with a number of frontline Finnish pop artists. However, her long-awaited solo debut, which leans heavily on the tradition of jazz, came out only last autumn.

“I wanted to wait until I knew exactly what I wanted to say”, says Söder. “The realisation that we cannot control life inspired me to write this album. We should trust ourselves to the stream of life; it will carry us and lead us where we belong. It this consoling message that I want to express with my music.
