Seinabo Sey

Swedish-Gambian singer Seinabo Sey brings her deep‑toned voice and clear-cut pop-soul writing to Sara kulturhus in Skellefteå on December 5, 2026. Raised between Stockholm and Halmstad, she first broke through with Younger, followed by Hard Time and Pistols at Dawn, setting a course where contemporary soul meets pop structures and pared-back electronics. Her early collaboration with producer Magnus Lidehäll helped define a sound built on front-and-center vocals, crisp hooks and understated beats. After the twin EPs For Madeleine and For Maudo, she released Pretend in 2015, I’m a Dream in 2018, then The One After Me in 2023.

On stage, Sey leans into dynamics and space: bass lines that carry the groove, keys and samples that sketch the frame, and melodies that do the heavy lifting. The studio tension translates live into arrangements that move from intimate to driving, with early tracks sitting naturally alongside newer material. The show draws a line through her catalogue without nostalgia, keeping focus on voice, songwriting and a restrained electronic pulse.
