From the giddy playfulness of youth all the way to the folk hinterland, Andreas Soderstrom has been surrounded by instruments, exposed to the sounds of his father’s bazouki factory; an extraordinary melange of clattering noise and metallic melody.

That natural inquisitiveness has obviously paid off, and it surely can’t be a coincidence that a career in music beckoned. Trading under the pseudonym Ass – it stands for Andreas Soderstrom Solo – for more than a decade he has been the hitherto unknown man of Swedish pop, having played with the likes of electro-pop priestess Jenny Wilson, digital folk stalwarts Tape, offbeat folk-pop minstrel Blood Music, and Taken By Trees, the latest incarnation of former Concretes singer Victoria Bergsman.
