Astrid Swan is a artist from Finland. She writes songs, sings and plays instruments. Astrid asks of herself “Am I a conflicting figure, a radical annoyance with my own songs but also with my masquerades and games of beauty? Am I to be seen with the Marilyns or with the Jonis? Why can I not be with the Bobs or the Antonies?”
She has enjoyed playing shows with Jose Gonzalez, Mew, Loney Dear, Jamie Cullum & Lou Barlow. None of these people look or sound like Astrid Swan.
Poverina (2005)is the title of her debut album. People who have heard it love it. Minty Fresh Records released Poverina in the USA in spring 2007. If you really want to experience who Astrid Swan is, listen to her music.
Astrid Swan is not heavy metal.
New Astrid Swan album Spartan Picnic released in Finland 27th February 2008.

Continents is the best on Spartan Picnic. No doubt about it! The rest of it is just... indie. '¬¬
