"I feel like the Puppet Master. They all play what I want them to play..." EP 23 with Jenny Apelmo Mattson

In this episode of Can’t Find My Way Home, I spoke with Jenny Apelmo Mattsson.
Jenny describes her Expat journey from her native Gothenburg, Sweden to Hamburg, via Berlin.
After graduating from music college, Jenny decided that she wanted to try something different and  has now called Germany home for the past 10 years.
We talk about how she first got into bass playing and her musical background, as well as why Sweden has been able to produce so many excellent musicians. Maybe a lesson we could all learn from?
Jenny highlights some of the differences between the music scene in both countries, as well as the perils of playing your own songs to an audience.
We get into her work with Torpus and The Art Directors, and of course, how her new album ‘Patterns’ came together.
Jenny explains some of the themes behind the songs on the album, and why it was important for her to have a backing band that was made-up of both sexes...and we ponder- where have all the female drummers gone?
In the Top 5, there’s Justin Timberlake, The Big Thief, being stuck in 2010’s Indie Music Scene…as well as a plethora of Swedish acts for us to check out…
All this and The Beatles singing in German, AND playing in people’s back gardens!
