Taken By Trees - Open Field

Taken by Trees is Victoria Bergsman´s new solo project. She is the former leadsinger in The Concretes.
The name 'Taken By Trees' was chosen for this new musical adventure partly because of Victoria's explicit love of trees. Which is illustrated by the band's website: www.takenbytrees.com which has both a storytelling 'tree' section and a series of beautiful photos of outdoor life and particularly trees.
Her debut album Open Field was recorded in six days straight with Victoria refusing the musicians the chance to get to know the songs too well beforehand in a conscious attempt to keep the recordings alert, full of energy and not overcook them.
Open Field is packed with stark, delicate pop melodies. Victoria has the sort of voice that stops you in your tracks and demands you listen. Her hauntingly poignant voice, at times brimming with uplifting spirit and then by turns disarmingly plaintive is deeply beguiling.
