Swedish band The Magnettes make their return with their new single 'ANX'. An ode to completely letting go and going wild for a change, the group offer upbeat Scandi-pop stacked with lively and bubbly production, a catchy chorus and lyrics that are a bit edgier than the group's earlier work. The cut makes you want to completely go for yours in an unapologetic manner.
Consisting of Sanna Kalla and Rebecka Digervall, The Pajala-raised singers have captured the ears of audiences globally, becoming faves at The Great Escape Festival in Brighton as well as SXSW in Austin, Texas. Known for their powerful vocal ability, The Magnettes released a batch of polished recordings such as ‘Who We Are’ and ‘Sore Feet & Heartbeats’.
Youthful spirits with the feelings of running free, the transition into the next chapter of life - sometimes embraced, sometimes appalled...the rebel yells are fiercely heard. The words scream of love and lust, happiness and hurt, yet all ring out with a charismatic lilt. Enter the world of Sanna Kalla and Rebecka Digervall, the Swedish duo known as The Magnettes.
Raised in the northern town of Pajala, Kalla and Digervall formed a band in their early teens, playing in local establishments. Influenced by a variety of styles ranging from punk to folk, by 2012 the two released their debut single 'Paper Cuts', a lofty pop rock song that showcased their rapidly matured new sound and star-like quality.
