Josefin Winther 2019
Josefin Winther gir ut sitt femte studioalbum og debuterer på norsk. Etter å ha gitt ut fire album på engelsk, hvor de to siste ble produsert av Yngve Sætre, debuterer Josefin både som produsent og norskspråklig tekstforfatter.
Albumet er todelt; "Uendelig lys" og "Uendelig mørke". Utgivelsen viser en Josefin preget av en ny livsfase, samtidig som hun bygger videre på 14 år som utøvende artist og musiker.
Dette har resultert i et arbeid, hvor låtmaterialet har blitt til underveis i studio. Fokuset har blitt flyttet fra hva til hvordan. Hun har jobbet med å skape innspillingssituasjoner hvor kreative impulser kan følges og utforskes umiddelbart. Flere av låtene på albumet er improvisert frem i både tekst og melodi, og noen av dem er til og med selve opptaket av at låten blir til. Frem mot albumslippet ga Winther ut fire singler, og 14. oktober kom [Uendelig lys. Uendelig mørke.] ut.
