With a voice that leaves no one indifferent, Malin Hässlemark from Jämtland will hopefully be the next name on the country scene to keep an eye on. Her debut EP from last year certainly made an impression. Among other things, the song “One of These Days” appeared on various country music playlists around Europe and even here at home her EP received good reviews.
In the new one, “I’m Wasting Time”, she has once again taken production help from Ola Gustafsson (Melissa Horn, Lars Winnerbäck and others). The song itself carries a warm organic sound with a nod to classic bands like The Eagles and Fleetwood Mac but with its own contemporary touch. The lyrics are a reminder not to let life slip away but instead to take advantage of the small, beautiful moments that make all the difference.
Regarding her creation and music, Malin says;
– A little over a year ago I decided to go all-in on country, which makes the songs feel very much “me”. Like a little piece of my heart, if I’m going to try to be poetic.
With that said, Malin Hässlemark writes fantastic songs that should reach everyone and everyone.
