Embee Retellings

On November 10th, we celebrate the 20th anniversary of Embee’s award-winning debut album “Tellings from Solitaria”. The original vinyl release was pressed in a limited edition and sold out quickly after its launch. Now, David vs Goliath is releasing a highly anticipated repress later this fall. To mark the occasion, Embee has teamed up with some of Berlin's top jazz musicians—Petter Eldh (Koma Saxo), Otis Sandsjö (Y-Otis), and the piano virtuoso Fabian Kallerdahl (Musicmusicmusic)—to create and record new material inspired by the mood and atmosphere of the debut album. The new project serves as a retrospective of “Tellings from Solitaria”, which was originally released exactly 20 years ago. Much like its predecessor, the album blends elements of jazz, indie-R&B, ambient, and instrumental hip-hop, with guest vocals by Anna Ahnlund (Dina Ögon) and Embee’s long-time collaborator Ayla.
