Stockholm Voices - A Vocal Powerhouse!

Sold out concerts and standing ovations have followed in the trails of Stockholm Voices! The four soloists offer vocal harmony singing at a world class level.

Stockholm Voices is a vocal jazz quartet with a swinging band. With one foot in the lush soil of jazz, the other in the Nordic midsummer night, the singers offer melodious voicings draped in elegance and charm. The debut album “Come Rain or Come Shine” was released in 2015 and received rave reviews from the press. In March 2023 the singers release their new album - “New Horizon”, a tribute to the fantastic music composed by Sir Paul McCartney during his long career, from the Beatles days until today.

“We were looking for a material that allowed us the freedom to explore and develop our sound. The deeper we delved into McCartney’s music, the more our love for his lyrics and melodies grew. The result is something that feels personal and new to us”.

It is a new day, a new chapter, a “New Horizon”!
Meet a dynamic group that swings like a Big Band. Stockholm Voices - a Vocal Powerhouse.

Stockholm Voices is a Swedish jazz vocal quartet who join the company of Manhattan Transfer, New York Voices and the newly minted London, Meader, Pramuk and Ross. But, Stockholm Voices brings something very different to the tables in the way of a retrospective style. Rather than the bebop lightening bolts thrown off by the greater field of jazz quartet vocals, the Stockholm Voices harken back to a time when the Mills Brothers and the Andrews Sister were developing their swing ...

ALBUM REVIEWS: “This is so genuinely musical and good, superb arrangements and tight enjoyable voices. This comes with challenge of obligations, but has been seized in a brilliant way.” Rating: 5 out of 5 – Corren, Gunnar Ekermo 25.02.2015

“Stockholm Voices’ first album impresses in many ways. The singers blend their voices in harmonious vocal singing. No voice dominates either of the others or steals too much attention.” Rating: 4 out of 5 – Örnsköldsvik Allehanda, Lars Landström 25/02/2015

REVIEWS OF LIVE CONCERTS: “At last! A new Swedish jazz vocal group enters the stage at the Umeå Jazz Studio and the void after [Swedish renowned vocal group] Gals and Pals is filled. Stockholm Voices are four tightly knitted voices that without noticable effort manage the art of phrasing and swinging together like proper jazz group.” – Folkbladet 2016/11/25

“With Stockholm Voices jazz bursts into full bloom. They were a complete success at their concert in the Blue Saloon with their exquisite vocals and their supreme artistry. This relatively newly started vocal quartet is touring extensively and are captivating the Swedish jazz audience completely. You just have to surrender to these formidable voices and their tight band with four creative and interacting musicians that greatly contribute to the successful result.” – Norra Skåne 2015/02/04

“You didn’t need long to understand that we’ve got something really big in this quartet. And then the fun idea: To perform the music from the marvelous album “Waltz for Debby”, with Monica Zetterlund and Bill Evans Trio from 1964. With fresh and updated arrangements we where brought on a journey through all of the fantastic music from the album. This young and talented quartet are about to captivate the audience in our land completely.” – Jönköpingsposten. (Newspaper of Jönköping) 2015/01/30
