Open Field by Taken By Trees

Released: Sep 11 2007

TAKEN BY TREES is Victoria Bergsman’s new project.

If you don’t recognize Victoria Bergsman by name, you may recognize her utterly unique voice, as she was singer and songwriter for The Concretes for 11 years before deciding to leave the band in July 2006. You may also recognize Victoria’s voice from one of the biggest and most popular songs of last year – Peter Bjorn & John’s infectious single “Young Folks.”

Now, after much deliberation and thought, Victoria has decided to follow her instincts and record a debut album of her own. On Open Field, she is aided and abetted by fellow Peter, Bjorn & John co-horts Bjorn Yttling (on various instruments and string arrangements) and John Eriksson (on all ‘very personal’ percussion instruments - marimba and vibraphone). The album also features guitar by Andreas Soderstrom, along with piano arrangements and backing vocals by Verity Susman from Electrelane. Victoria and Bjorn produced the album together.
