Swedish sensation Jenny Wilson is bringing her brand of idiosyncratic pop stateside for the first time ever with her
U.S. debut release
Hardships! The album is coming out on her own label Gold Medal Recordings on August 24th, but she is teaming up with pals over at
IAMSOUND Records for a special single release of the track
“Like A Fading Rainbow.”
On this single Jenny builds modern day spirituals off unique instrumentation including harps, marimbas, synths, and her own multi-tracked vocals on a song
that FADER regards as “monumental and completely exemplary of her grandiosity of vision.” The b-side of the single features an incredible gospel version of the track “Hardships,” which we’re thrilled
to give away to you today, thanks to IAMSOUND!
Hardships! may be Jenny’s first solo foray in to the U.S. scene, yet those with a keen ear may recognize her voice from a guest spot on
The Knife’s break-out album
Deep Cuts. The Knife also released her 2005 debut solo album
Love and Youth on their Swedish imprint,
Rabid Records. The following year she teamed up with fellow Swedish pop sensation,
Robyn, on
The Rakamonie EP
which includes the two doing a dueling-keys live rendition of
Saul Williams “List of Demands.”
