About

''One of the most arresting singer-songwriters in the world of contemporary jazz and beyond.''
- Laura Jurd, 2025

Swedish vocalist and songwriter Rebecka Edlund weaves Scandinavian folk music with improvisation and contemporary jazz. Since moving to London in 2019, she has emerged as one of the UK's most compelling vocalists.

''The kind of voice that is so pure, so straight, that hearing it makes you want to weep.''
- Victoria Kingham, Hastings Independent Press, 2024

Edlund tours the UK and Europe with the likes of Laura Jurd, Corrie Dick and duo partner Rob Luft. Recent ventures include performing with Ruth Goller's Skylla and recording an album with an octet featuring Norma Winstone, Iain Ballamy and Jeff Ballard. She curates the Downstairs Living Room series at Vortex Jazz Club and appears regularly at London venues such as Cecil Sharp House, Green Note and Pizza Express.

In 2024, Edlund released the album Något Om En Björk with her quartet Oknytt, which was nominated as one of the best folk jazz albums of the year by Lira Music Magazine. Edlund's upcoming debut album, Virgin Forest, features the extraordinary musical minds of Laura Jurd, Ruth Goller and Elliot Galvin.

''A generational talent with a unique artistic vision for individualism and collaboration''

''In a musically exciting set, it is Rebecka Edlund who commands attention with her magnificent voice (and constantly surprising glottal sounds). She utterly captivates the audience in her role as front woman.''
