The musician talks songwriting, her latest album, and her love for ABBA.
The Swedish singer-songwriter Lotta Lindgren, known by her stage name Léon, is intimately familiar with the legacy of American pop hits written by Swedes. Britney Spears’s “Baby One More Time” and “I Want It That Way” by The Backstreet Boys? Both were written by Max Martin, a Stockholm native.
One key aspect of untying the knots in her work had to do with spending time with friends. Isolation, Léon found, did her no good during times of high anxiety. Reconnecting with her best friends was one of “the best things about last year,” she says. Two songs that were born during those writing-from-home sessions happen to be two of Léon's favorites from the album: “Soaked,” and “Moonlight.” She brings these two tracks up multiple times during our conversation, saying they were special because they marked a departure from her usual manner of songwriting.
