Who is Elin Bergman? She finished runner-up on Swedish Idol the year before last, and has now signed up with the same team behind Ace Wilder, Miriam Bryant, and Midnight Boy. Today she releases her debut single ‘Shoot You Down’.
What’s it like? A LOUD r&b pop banger! We weren’t ready for THAT intro – or THAT vocal on the bridge. It’s a commandeering debut that promises she’s here and she’s not about to fuck around with this popstar business thing. One to watch, for sure. She bringeth the tunes.
Written by? Elin Bergman herself, along with Erik Sahlén and Victor Rådström. The song is produced by Victor Rådström – who is perhaps best known for his work with Miriam Bryant.
More from Elin? You might remember that in Swedish Idol, they have a brilliant tradition now where when it gets to the final four contestants, they all get to write a song with some already established Swedish songwriters and producers. This was Elin’s self composed song during her time on the show – ‘The Fire‘.
