Julia Andersson
Julia Andersson is a minimalist pianist whose emotional compositions invoke the vast forests and mythological beauty of her native Finland. She incorporates elements of jazz, ambient and modern classical to create a meandering style that speaks directly to the heart. She released her debut EP ‘Within, without’ in 2020, its thoughtful harmonies and gentle rhythmic pulses combining to weave a delicate web of nostalgia, reflection and inspiration. She followed this up with her pair of pieces Promise / Sleepy Meadows with yours truly in the fall of the same year and the tracks Luna &Nostalgi in 2021-2022. She arrives in 2023 with her first full length effort, the gorgeous collection of solo piano pieces entitled Dröm. The title means 'dream' or 'illusion' in Swedish (Julia is a Swedish speaking Finn), which perfectly encapsulates the dreamlike and reflective nature of the pieces.
