We’ve heard Sven-Holger Rosenvinge before in the alternative rock band Mandylon and solo with rock and pop in English. On his new EP “Ballader på svenska”, though, he’s changed language to Swedish and is fetching inspiration from the nordic folk soil. The result is brilliant when he lets these folk-vibing ballads grow into his own style of singer-songwriter-pop with tasteful and interesting arrangements. And he uses his fantastistic voice in the best way in this context as well, with just the right dose of fragility and blackness.
