Studio album debut by Swedish artist Veronica Maggio released on Stockholm Records / Universal and produced by Stefan Gräslund, who not only has written and composed all songs but also is credited 'instruments'.
The album is held in a certain jazz pop style, which bonds to early music by The Cardigans and Bo Kaspers Orkester, I think. Maggio's voice sounds much like Nina Persson of The Cardigans on this, and there's a certain laid back feel of lounge all over.
It's generally Okay, though I don't find it very personal nor that original. The song "Dumpa mig" was her first solo single release and it made it to number #14 on the Swedish singles chart.
