Jack Adamant
Jack Adamant is a singer/songwriter from Italy who lives and records in Stockholm. His solo career began around 2012 when he started writing songs that were heavily influenced by American artists such as J Mascis, Lou Barlow, Evan Dando, Bob Mould, Mac McCaughan, Robert Pollard, Daniel Johnston and others from the same music scene.
Learning to play guitar at twelve years old he couldn’t wait to start writing music, learning to mix with an old tape recorder won in a street raffle. By experimenting with different genres of music and meticulously studying his favourite lyrics, he finally found his own style leaning towards alternative folk/rock.
In 2007, he joined Valerihana, where distortion and heavy guitars gave him the foundations and confidence to play live. Touring mainly between Italy and Sweden, they had a good amount of shows under their belt by the time they released their first record “Out of Regulation”, which draws influence from the likes of Smashing Pumpkins, Placebo and The Pixies.
After signing to AR Recordings in July 2017, the work began to release Jack Adamant’s first EP “Lunch at 12 since ’82“. The EP consists of five songs which tell the story of a couple navigating the obstacles and hardships of life together. His way of narrating highlights the fragility of a relationship; the difficulty in knowing when to push harder and fight for something, when to whisper words of support if the other is struggling but also to be brutally honest with each other when things aren’t working out.
When you start a new relationship you strive to impress the other person, you only want them to see you at your best, but this depiction won’t last forever. For good things to come of it, you need to let your guard down and share your demons. The first track “Easy to Find” is a song of appreciation; of waking up to somebody and being grateful that you still have them around. “It’s safe to follow the herd, but to be bold and go solo is difficult. Writing this EP forced me to be honest and take stock of my opinions. It allowed me to know my own mind.”
Jack released his first full length record “Unkind” in 2019, a major departure from his earlier sound, written between Stockholm, Liverpool, Rome and God knows where else. Since 2020, the full band has leaned into a grittier indie punk direction, producing a fresh wave of songs alongside drummer Ged and bassist Vix. Recorded largely at home during lockdown, this period birthed “Obscure Places & Cupboards” (2022), an album that tackles modern dilemmas with commanding vocals and thrilling guitar work, paying homage to the raw energy of rock legends.
Following a string of new releases including “Pixels In The Dark”, “Stuck & Paralysed”, “Over Signs” and a personal take on The Cure’s “Friday I’m In Love”, Jack returns with his most dynamic project yet. His new album, “Helium in Low Voltage Wiring” explores the tension between contrasting emotions and sounds, offering a listening experience that is both introspective and dynamic. It’s a record built on contradiction, fragile yet forceful, reflective yet charged, further cementing his place as an artist unafraid to evolve.

Jaime French
Multi hyphenate creative force Jaime French steps boldly into a new era with the release of her dark pop single 'The Hunter'. The cinematic track serves as the gripping introduction to her debut EP 'The Ripple Effect', out March 24. For more than a decade, French has carved her own path as a dynamic comedian, YouTuber, and vocalist, captivating audiences with her sharp humor, intellect, and unmistakable originality. What began as digital content creation has grown into a powerful online presence, with nearly three million followers on Facebook and close to one million subscribers on YouTube, alongside a substantial following across other platforms. Her ability to connect authentically and creatively with millions has cemented her as a true original. Now, she channels that same fearlessness into music that is as emotionally resonant as it is sonically powerful. 'The Hunter' is a haunting exploration of insomnia, inspired by French’s lifelong struggle with sleeplessness. “I've struggled with insomnia most of my life and it has always felt like my own mind was hunting me and hunting my sleep,” she explains. “So I wrote the song and brought it to Nashville to record.” In Nashville, French collaborated with acclaimed producer Tom Bukovac, who helped shape the melody and elevate the track’s emotional intensity. Together, they transformed her raw lyrics into a sweeping, cinematic soundscape that captures the restless tension and vulnerability of lying awake in the dark. The result is a powerful dark pop anthem that immerses listeners in the psychological push and pull of insomnia. Blending elements of dark pop and alternative rock, French’s musical style evokes the emotional depth of Adele, the soulful intensity of Hozier, the anthemic drive of Kings of Leon, and the ethereal power of Florence + The Machine, while remaining distinctly her own. Rich vocals, moody production, and evocative storytelling position 'The Hunter' as both deeply personal and universally relatable. With 'The Ripple Effect', French proves that her artistry extends far beyond the screen. The EP promises to showcase a new dimension of her creativity, rooted in vulnerability, strength, and bold sonic ambition.

Johanna Linnea Jakobsson
Johanna Linnea Jakobsson is a Danish-Swedish vocalist, saxophonist and songwriter. Born and raised in Copenhagen and currently residing in Southern Sweden, she first made a name for herself on the Scandinavian jazz scene with the release of the debut album Alone Together in 2022. With a mix of traditional jazz and the singer-songwriter-genre, the debut included both original compositions and new arrangements of well-known classics by Duke Ellington, Lennon/McCartney and others, switching between vocals and saxophone as the lead instrument. Alone Together garnered praise from several jazz critics around Europe and was also named one of the best vocal albums of 2022 by the prestigious Japanese magazine Jazz Hihyo.
In 2023 she followed up with an EP featuring some of her personal favourites from the jazz standard repertoire. Furthermore, she wrote and recorded the soundtrack for the Emmy Award winning series One of The Boys and released the songs as an EP in connection with the series premiere. The latter was made in collaboration with drummer and producer John Fernold (Sweden) who is also the producer of her sophomore album Don’t Overthink It.
On Don’t Overthink It Johanna Linnea Jakobsson has taken a new course, diving further into the act of songwriting and focusing purely on original compositions. The songs are all centered around her distinctive vocals. Genre-wise the lines between jazz, folk and pop are both blurred and kind of irrelevant. The songs are written from the perspective of suddenly finding yourself in adulthood, navigating both dreams, worries and the unknown. It may sound a bit dark, but it actually isn’t. The musical landscape lies somewhere in between influences such as Norah Jonas and Ella Fitzgerald with drips of Jeff Buckley and The Beatles.

Jon Magnum
Jon Magnum steps confidently onto the modern pop landscape with a clear artistic mission to reconnect listeners with the Golden Age of music, where groove, melody, and emotion took center stage. His latest single, ‘Night Moves’, is a vibrant and uplifting synth pop release that invites listeners to get up, move their bodies, and momentarily escape the noise of everyday life. ‘Night Moves’ captures the feeling of late-night freedom and emotional release, combining energetic rhythms with a dreamy atmosphere. Designed to help listeners unwind their minds and lose themselves in the music, the track balances nostalgia with a polished contemporary sound. Fans of Dua Lipa, Bruno Mars, and The Human League will immediately recognize familiar influences, while still discovering a sound that feels uniquely Jon Magnum. The song’s foundation began with the bass, an instrument Magnum started his musical journey on. Determined to create a groove that would instantly connect with listeners, he built a bass riff intended to get people moving. From there, rung-out guitar chords were layered into the arrangement, adding a shimmering, dreamy texture that elevates the track beyond a standard dance record. As the instrumental took shape, the melody and lyrics followed naturally. Magnum describes the writing process as effortless once the track began to breathe. The vocal performance locks seamlessly into the groove, delivering a smooth and emotive topline that enhances the song’s feel-good energy. A close friend also played a key role in shaping the final sound, contributing a catchy synth riff that drives the track and reinforces its unmistakable synth pop identity. Lyrically, ‘Night Moves’ stands as a love song with heart and purpose. It is dedicated to those who have spent long periods alone and to the emotional release that comes with finally finding the person they have been longing for. This theme of connection and rediscovery adds depth to the track, allowing it to resonate on both the dancefloor and a more personal level. The response to ‘Night Moves’ has already been significant, with the single approaching 100,000 plays on Spotify. The growing momentum reflects both the track’s broad appeal and Jon Magnum’s ability to craft music that connects emotionally while remaining irresistibly danceable. With ‘Night Moves’, Jon Magnum delivers a confident statement of intent, blending classic influences with modern production and heartfelt storytelling. It marks an exciting chapter in his career and signals the arrival of an artist committed to making music that moves both the body and the soul.
