Hold Your Love Still

“I want to give you this and ask for nothing in return.” Naked but for a soft blanket of reverb, Christian Kjellvander’s tender voice invites us into his latest creation, the swooning Hold Your Love Still. His first solo album since 2020’s About Love And Loving Again finds the Swedish troubadour in a reflective mood, exploring the difficulties of an honest life amid the entanglement of capitalism, and imploring us to nurture that faltering hope for a better tomorrow.
