Swedish singer Orlando Hotopf mixes folk and electronics on his new single Half Light, an introspective song about supporting a friend who is not well. It is unclear whether that person will get better - it will be a long journey for sure, but being an optimistic ally is the way to go for now.
Swedish singer Orlando Hotopf contemplates the issues of becoming an adult on his new single Growing Pains. There are some perks involved, but he could do without some of the responsibilities that come with it. It is a melancholic pop song with a folk twist. Stephanie Fraser is on board for tasteful backing vocals.
Swedish singer Orlando Hotopf's debut single Confessions as a solo artist is a sad love song of sorts, wrapped in a classic late Eighties pop mode. At 28 he is already been a member of a few bands and he has been making a living as a session musician. Aided by Anton Hedlund (lead guitar), Eric Olsson (drums) and Freyr Flodgren (bass) he has been busy writing the material for his first album. The single is an indication of what's in store: left of center mainstream pop that will appeal to casual and serious listeners.
