Filippa Nässil releases debut solo album via Despotz Records.

Filippa Nässil (founder, songwriter and guitar player in Thundermother) spent two months and three weeks in the USA touring with Thundermother in the fall of 2022 supporting the band Scorpions. On off days from playing she wrote lyrics for what came to be her upcoming debut solo album “American Diaries”, that is set for release autumn 2024. The album will contain both English and Swedish versions of all the tracks on the album.

She booked the studio in Skåne, Klippan, Sweden (Lemon Recording Studio) whilst still in the States and wrote the music for the album in one month after coming home and recorded it in December 2022 and mixed it in Medley Studios march 2023 in Copenhagen.

Filippa started Thundermother 2009, she studied music production and guitar before that. In 2022 she studied in distance at London Songwriting Academy and she thanks one of her teachers Shelly Poole for pushing her to do a solo album.

About her third single "Green Fields Of Napa", and how it came to be, she had this to say:

"During a day off, we received an invitation to visit an expansive winery farm in the heart of Napa Valley. The surroundings were beautiful with olive trees, grapevines, and pomegranates hanging from the ceiling, ripe for the picking. We tried local wines, but as evening went by, our host prepared a meal of pasta with tomato sauce, accompanied by bread and butter. However, to my surprise, he confessed that these dishes contained ingredients from his own cannabis fields. I promptly requested an alternative dish, and as I waited for its preparation, an effect took hold while my arms went a bit too relaxed. I became intoxicated while waiting for the replacement meal from the butter I had on my bread. It was a delightful evening after all, the crackling of a fire and I just had to accept and live in the moment."

“American Diaries” is what it sounds like, her time in Chicago meeting her blues idol “Buddy Guy” and his family, she even got invited to his birthday party turning 86 years old. On “Buddy Guy’s Blues” she plays with his son “Greg Guy”. On “Green Fields Of Napa” she tells the story of getting accidentally high, eating food on a winery, on “Richmond, Virginia” about her favorite food mexican tacos called ‘pastor’, on “San Fransisco” when her boyfriend came to visit and the joy that brought, on “For Rudy”, she sings about her time in Texas, ending up on a night club and the new friends she made there. “Mount Shasta” is her personal favorite, high up in the mountains of north California, missing her love wishing she could share that beauty with him.

“American Diaries” is a map over the USA, but in songs written, played and sung both in Swedish and English versions, by Filippa Nässil.

Her debut solo album "American Diaries" is set for release in October 4th 2024. The album will contain both Swedish and English versions of all the tracks on the album.

Lyrics:
I can’t believe my eyes as I'm walking through the vines
Everything is good and neat and all set up in lines
I get the feeling that nothing’s as it seems
In The green fields of Napa

I guess, I’ll get high
There’s weed In my food and wine on the table
I guess, I’ll get high
Let’s have a good time and see the world fade away
I thought I’d had some wine, but this I was tricked
In the green fields of Napa

Too much wine and I'm sitting with the boss
He serves us pasta with a strange tomato sauce
He is a farmer-man with a special cuisine
from his fields of green

I guess, I’ll get high
There’s weed In my food and wine on the table
I guess, I’ll get high
Let’s have a good time and see the world fade away
I thought I’d had some wine, but this I was tricked
In the green fields of Napa

I guess, I’ll get high
There’s weed In my food and wine on the table
High
Let’s have a good time and see the world fade away
I thought I’d had some wine, but this I was tricked
In the green fields of Napa
I guess, I’ll get high
There’s weed In my food and wine on the table
I guess, I’ll get high
Let’s have a good time and see the world fade away
I thought I’d had some wine, but this I was tricked
In the green fields of Napa
