Canary Islands

Canary Islands is the dreamy indie folk solo project of Swedish singer-songwriter Gustav Kjellvander, who began releasing music under this moniker around 2017. Known for his weathered baritone voice and lush, introspective soundscapes, Kjellvander mixes Scandinavian melancholy with warm Americana influences, often singing in both English and Swedish across his releases. His trilogy of albums (*Canary Islands*, *Canary Islands II*, and *Canary Islands III*) evolved from sparse acoustic reflections to richer, orchestral arrangements, with recent tracks like "GLÖM BEJBI GLÖM" and "WILD SÅS" leaning into playful bilingual wordplay and breezy Nordic folk-pop vibes. Whether crafting haunting ballads or sun-dappled reveries, his work feels like a quiet conversation with nature and memory.
