Taylor Alison Swift is an American singer-songwriter. She is known for narrative songs about her personal life, which have received widespread media coverage. At age 14, Swift became the youngest artist signed by the Sony/ATV Music publishing house and, at 15, she signed her first record deal.
Her 2006 eponymous debut album was the longest-charting album of the 2000s in the US. Its third single, "Our Song", made her the youngest person to single-handedly write and perform a number-one song on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. Swift's second album, Fearless, was released in 2008.
Buoyed by the pop crossover success of the singles "Love Story" and "You Belong with Me", it became the US' best-selling album of 2009 and was certified diamond in the US. The album won four Grammy Awards, and Swift became the youngest Album of the Year winner.
Many Voices Speak – aka Swedish musician Matilda Mård – has announced that she will release her second album, ‘Gestures’, in April.
New single, ‘Seat For Sadness’, is out now.“The verse of this song kind of came to me all at once”, she says of the single. “Then it took quite a long time until I got the rest of the song out of me”.“I lived in Berlin at the time and rented a piano room at a music school, and most of the hours spent in there I was searching for the rest of the song”, she continues. “It wasn’t until me and [producer] Petter Nygårdh had started recording the album, back home in Sweden, that I came up with the melody that would become the chorus”.“The new chorus pushed us in a new direction by making the whole song require something more”, she goes on. “We had only brought a small part of the home studio to a country house to escape the noise from the neighbour’s renovation, but we found an acoustic guitar in that house that ended up being an important part of ‘Seat For Sadness’, and later on an important part of the album as a whole”.The new album follows 2018’s ‘Tank Town’.
Of the development in her songwriting over the last four years, she says: “The lyrics have become more important for me. I’ve put a lot of trust in the text this time.
I could explore this darker and more cinematic sound, I didn’t just think about writing a pop song”.“What unites the songs is a need for inner change, to handle the things in life that can’t be changed”, she adds. “I’m creating strategies for myself – new ways of thinking, so I can live with certain things.
