“It takes both artistic courage, humor, life experience and musical skill to be able to write a convincing and touching song about lost love and at the same time rhyme "fridgerator" with "perculator". There's a bit of genius in that. Jennifer Saxell is meticulous in her writing process, weaving contrasts and surprises into her songs, creating a style all her own. Her voice is as soft and sweet as it is convincing and powerful, vulnerable yet strong at the same time. Her lyrics are carefully embroidered into whimsical rock poetry with a twist, where stories and reflections from her diverse life experiences touch the listener. But at the same time… it’s as if the songs exclaim "Don't be fooled!"… Jennifer Saxell is musically sprung from the North American country and rock tradition and there is a toughness and attitude in her music that takes her to a musical platform she shares with artists like Bonnie Raitt or Lucinda Williams.” (Maria Anderberg, freelance journalist) 

JENNIFER SAXELL IS BACK! In recent years Jennifer has been more prominent as a visual artist, but I have continually missed her music and unique voice (as well as her own material she has released a fantastic Americana version of Eve of Destruction). Now she’s back and I feel (in spite of the title!) happy when I hear her latest comeback release.Jennifer's warm sensuous voice, a combination of pop and country, is as exciting as the new country singers coming out of East Nashville right now. - Olle Berggren - journalist/music critic - Expressen, Kvällsposten

She has created her own style – somewhere between cocky neo-country, charming pop and slowburning soul – and applied it to finely crafted songs with a voice that is proud, sensual and saturated with intimacy...

Jennifer Saxell, who for the past few years has been devoting her time to her visual art, is making a comeback as a ”song-poet” with the her latest release, excellent on all fronts - vocals, recording and composition. In a word: worldclass.

....her musicality combines with American folk, rock, pop (and a hint of jazz). Her songs have few and simple but well placed chords making them original and personal, totally her own. She performs them with a voice that must be one of the best in Sweden (perhaps in her native country as well). Håkan Olsson - Rootsy.nu

A beautiful night for the soul…

One of the great things about this job is that once in a while I get to discover something new that makes me feel good right down to my soul. I’ve never heard Jennifer Saxell sing, Thursday night was the first time...

...Above all it is her lyrics that capture the listener...artful commentaries on all sides of life….she sings about suicide and about how a woman might murder an unbearable husband as well as how wonderful true love and falling in love are - with urgency and conviction, but also with much warmth and humour. Her encore song performance gave goosebumps and brought tears to my eyes.

What a wonderful evening! - Robert Dahlstörm, Arts Editor/Ystads Allehanda

..Jennifer Saxell provided the musical high point of the evening. Amidst the other charming, down-home offerings Jennifer's material provided a much needed poetic and musical excitement. Like a fusion between Sophie Zelmani och Laleh, Jennifer effectively wove brittleness and beauty with a dramatic nerve that left one wanting for more...

Daisy Roulette…a tastefully produced, intimate album one can listen to for the individual players’ contributions alone. But one can listen – and smile – even more so to Jennifer’s songs, with themes running from happy-in-love to treacherously murderous. And her expressive vocals…clear and understated, timid without becoming overly sentimental. Of course it doesn’t hurt that [her] sense of melody, on tracks like All In Your Head or Shine the Sun for example, could send any radio producer over the moon…’
