Anna von Hausswolff

Anna von Hausswolff is a critically acclaimed singer, songwriter, and pianist from Sweden who made her album debut with Singing from the Grave in 2010 -- it was well-received by critics, who drew comparisons to singer/songwriters Kate Bush and Antony Hegarty, among others. She moved to Denmark and switched up her musical and sonic palettes (she recorded most of the record with a church organ as her primary instrument) on 2012's Ceremony. In the fall of 2015, she released The Miraculous, a song cycle that touched on everything from gothic folk and pop music to black and death metal. The full-length Dead Magic was issued in early March of 2018. ~ Jason Birchmeier
