Stina Engelbrecht

Stina Engelbrecht is a songwriter, lyricist and a writer (publishing deal with sonyatv/ picnic music and Ersatz). She is also the co-founder and one of three singers in her folk/pop band Sarek who mix pop, dance rytmes and influences from Swedish folk music. They have been competing in ESC, Sweden two times (2003, 2004), have sold almost 40.000 albums and are just about to finish their third.



Sareks music is also a mix between lyrics written in a vivid way for the listener to see inner pictures and music who is trying to catch a feeling of both the present and the past. In the same way as the sound of the group's ancient instruments meets today's modern music production (Jens Engelbrecht/ Nattsärk productions and Leif Larsson (whos been working with for instance Faith Hill, Louise Hoffsten, Björn Skifs) stands for the new production).



Stina also writes fantasybooks and her first book “Alvin-eldpojken” with amazing illustrations by Peter Bergting (The Portent, Harry Potter) was released in december 2007 by the publishing house Ersatz and as a music audiobook on the recordcompany Nons (Stina wrote the music on the album with Emil Nilsson).



From Alvin-eldpojken:

By the High Coast, the green forests completely surrounds the dark mountains. The trees grow close together and the old mountains reach high.

Having lent the sky all its colors, the sun sets behind the peaks, and the night becomes as dark as the world beneath men.

But how can all those who live in the forest find their way, when it's so dark you can't even see hand or paw in front of you? Some have nightvision and move with ease even though the light has disappeared, but what of all the other inhabitants of the forest? Lucky for them, there are Stjaerngossar.

A long time ago, a magical tale began. The tale of how the "Boys who carries the fire" became Stjaerngossar".



Stina also owns the production- and record company Mindport togehter with Sareks producer Jens Engelbrecht.
