Approved: RebekkaMaria (Best Of Approved 2010)

By | Published on Monday 20 December 2010

Describing the music of Rebekka Maria Andersson, or RebekkaMaria to use her stage name, is no simple task. I could simply say that she’s a Danish pop singer who sounds a little like Lykke Li and has supported Mika. And that would be completely accurate. But it would also completely misrepresent her.

Sure, Lykke Li is the obvious reference point for quick comparison, but it completely misses the amazing ability Andersson has to switch her voice between all manner of styles from cutesy pop to world-weary soul. And, yes, she technically makes pop music, but it’s so varied that, while at times you can see why she’d be booked to support Mika, at others it makes about as much sense as The Knife supporting Boyzone.
