Emmalisa Hallander

**Emmalisa Hallander** is Sweden’s rising jazz vocalist and composer, celebrated for her dynamic stage presence and genre-blending artistry. At just 24, she’s already made waves with her debut album *Have a Look Inside* (2023), praised for its mix of original songs and a reimagined cover of “Miljarder Stjärnor,” showcasing her knack for weaving themes of self-discovery and love into jazz melodies inspired by American Songbook classics and pop icons. Her second album, *Out of Reach* (2025), further cements her status as a fresh voice in vocal jazz, with critics comparing her to legends like Ella Fitzgerald for her scat-singing flair and lyrical depth.

Beyond solo work, Hallander shines in her pop duo Sand & Hallander and has toured with jazz greats like Peter Asplund and the Stockholm Jazz Orchestra. A recipient of the Monica Zetterlund Scholarship, she’s become a fixture at venues like Fasching and even graced international stages in Tokyo, earning accolades for her “instant evergreen” songwriting and magnetic performances.
