Event series Ja Ja Ja brings the best new Nordic music to London each and every month – their March edition is keeping the bar raised high with three amazing artists gracing the bill. In the wake of her new EP, Happy/Bad, we caught up with one of the artists, Vera Hotsauce, to find out a little more about her ahead of the show.
Ja Ja Ja bring hotly tipped Nordic artists to London every month for an amazing show and this month’s event is no exception. On March 21st at The Lexington, IDA KUDO will be joining them from Denmark, fresh from releasing her brilliant latest EP Gold, while hotly Swedish newcomer Vera Hotsauce will be airing tracks from her newly released EP happy/bad, and hot on the heels of a Teosto prize nomination for their latest album Love, Color Dolor will be joining them from Helsinki.
One artist that particularly caught our eye was Vera Hotsauce – a newly emerging artist and songwriter based in Stockholm. Having already released new EP Happy/Bad this year, she’s kept momentum high with follow up single, ‘Hey Boy’, which is out today.
