Davide Lippi

The tireless wanderlust of Davide Lippi is conveyed through a spiritual lyricism inspired by ancient folk music, tinged with hints of acoustic pop (not unlike Drew Holcomb or Northern Indians). Equal parts social lonewolf and compassionate philosopher, Davide spends his days as a horseman in northern Sweden when he’s not…

I’ll Be Waiting I’ll Be Waiting

I’ll Be Waiting

There’s a Reason

When you travel around the world (and your own country) as much as Marcus Friman, Swedish singer/songwriter behind “Land of Trees”, the journey changes you in such a profound way that it starts becoming introspective at some point. Your past and inner struggles turn into landmarks that slowly but steadily…

Land of Trees

Land of Trees

In a country like Sweden, where more than half the territory is covered by forests, it’s hard not to come into contact with nature at some point. Such an inviting environment spontaneously gives birth to wanderers, explorers of Earth who embrace a sort of nomadic lifestyle that fosters artistic inspiration.…
