Give Up Together - Vinyle Blanc

Description

After three years away, Swedish singer-songwriter Thomas Jonsson returns with Give Up Together, his sixth studio album under the name I'm Kingfisher. Following the success of Glue (2023), an album largely arranged with jazz musicians, Jonsson has opted this time for a heavier sound, offering a set of Americana songs, driven by understated drums, singular-style electric guitars, and rich strings, all occasionally deconstructing into stripped-down folk pieces. A true hidden gem from Sweden, I'm Kingfisher has been praised by critics, notably by NPR (All Songs Considered), Uncut, Clash, KEXP, and many others, and has shared the stage with artists such as Kevin Morby, Courtney Marie Andrews, The Weather Station, and Damien Jurado. A key figure in the Nordic folk scene, Jonsson has quietly built an impressive catalog and is finally ready to step into the spotlight alongside his most famous contemporaries.
