Two Of A Kind

We say

Axel Jansson is a London-based/Swedish-born singer and songwriter, and this is his follow-up to the debut single Shine, from earlier in the year. He was first drawn to music when he started to explore his father’s extensive record collection as a kid. Absorbing and soaking up the sounds of many of the great male solo stars of the 60’s and 70’s, they influenced the gritty, husky, heartfelt tone that you’ll find in his own work. He’s currently prepping his debut album and will be out on the road playing both solo shows, and with his three other band members. See him this weekend (July 9) making a Saturday Sessions appearance at Mau Mau Bar on Portobello Road and at The World’s End on July 16. This upbeat love song describes compromises two people often make whilst each waits for the other to make an initial move, especially in the modern dating game where the spoken-word is often forgotten in favour of mis-interpreted digital messaging. It’s exactly the sort of well-crafted acoustic-driven pop that deserves to find a large and welcoming audience here in the UK and beyond.
