REVIEWS

POPMUZIK, (SWE), Sebastian Södergren

"The thoughts are brought to a warm summer evening in dim darkness where anything can happen. The singer's voice is seductive and intimate, while maintaining a drive throughout the song (Genom Molnen, ed). What I am most delighted about is how skillfully the artist has captured the atmospheric feeling and harmonies, which contribute to a nostalgic and powerful listening experience."

Jukebok time (JBM Magazine)

...Through the rain and has a stunning intro that coaxes us into this mesmerizing number. The lyricism is deep that blends well with the arrangement. The softer approach of Get Gone totally allured us. Rebecka adds excellent surreality through her voice. The vocal tone is extraordinarily addictive and her vocal nuances captivate the psyche of the listener! With spectacular melodic tones, sublime arrangement and phenomenal vocals, Through the rain amazed us. And therefore Jukebox Time highly recommends this EP..."

Music blog (DK) Karsten Rune Sörensen 

"...As more and more people fill the room, there is no more space for anyone else as Rebecka Molander takes the stage. Now the magic begins! She has a great grip on the audience who are now completely silent. All chatter stops. The music is somewhat funky/soulful in style and the songs are very personal. The lyrics are down-to-earth, such as the song about the previous partner who preferred to drink gin and tonic rather than love. The super mini band is noteworthy, and I especially notice the keyboard player, who sounds like someone I heard many years ago. Oh yes - Richard Tee, who played on a few albums with Paul Simon(...)"
