After years of work, the folkduo Pettersson & Fredriksson’s third album is released.
“Sotali” is an old and odd word from the village of Kalix in the far north of Sweden. It is normaly used to denominate a lazy person, a sloth who just sits around all day. But it can also be interpreted as someone who “actively does nothing”. A zen-like, contemplating calm. We felt this went well with the feeling of the album.
Please have a listen to it through the player above or go to petfred.bandcamp.com . We have financed and released this album ourself, without a record label, so if you enjoy it we would be honoured if you purchased a download – or even better the physical CD. The CD comes packaged in a wonderful unique digipack which you just have to see! Plus, the digital download is of course freely included! Go to petfred.bandcamp.com to purchase a digital or physical copy. If you’d rather than using paypal, VISA or other online payment method would like to send us cash for a cd, that’s ok too. Contact us at sotali@silkwood.se for more info.
Finally, our deepest thanks to these people and organisations who have made this album possible: Erik Hasselgärde, Patrik Öberg, Christoffer Lundström and Johan Bergström at Upsweden, Frida Sjöström, Alice Pole Richard Ka,Thomas Blomberg at Turmalinen, Nisse Johansson at Ballerina Audio and probably a bunch of other people who I am not remembering right now.
