Antonia Vai - Vaudeville (feat: Saiid) - Petőfi Rádió Akusztik
Poetic soul. Dramatic folk. Melodic bitch slaps.
Antonia Vai is a singer/songwriter from Sweden, well-established on the music scene of Stockhom, but currently living in Budapest. Antonia has been titled as a “bohemian soul diva”, but has clearly been influenced by folk. Focused on storytelling, shaped by rhythms and unique melodies, every song turns into a journey. She shifts between sadness and hopefulness. Combines metaphors and contradictions. One second she’s dynamically explosive, and the other she’s emotionally stripped down.
Antonia Vai began recording her songs in the bedroom, or in random hotelrooms along the road, and ever since, the songs started spreading and circulating on the net. A growing request for a debut album emerged. In September 2012 she finally released her album “Lovers and Prophets“, a tribute to forbidden love and sanctifications. In the same turn, she released “Dirt From When The Earth Was Flat“, an album with gathered homemade productions.
In 2013 Antonia and guitarist Felix Gröndahl moved to Budapest, where they met percussionist Adam Gilinger and bass player Adam Zdosek. These four recorded the album “Stories After Bedtime” in the Szimpla ruinpub in Budapest. The first single from the album was “The Pirate’s Waltz” and the full album was released in September 2014.
