Click Here for Video Sample! Debut Solo Album By Pretenders' Lead Singer!
Stockholm is the debut album by The Pretenders lead singer, Chrissie Hynde. The album was recorded at Ingrid Studios in Stockholm with co-writer, guitarist and producer Bjorn Yttling of Peter, Bjorn and John. The album, 11 tracks in total, includes the first single "Dark Sunglasses," released on April 21. Stockholm is a suitably impressive addition to the Rock & Roll Hall of Famer's staggering legacy and a fresh debut.
Summing up her aims with the album, Chrissie said; "I wanted to make a power pop album you could dance to - Abba meets John Lennon."
Speaking about the new album, Chrissie adds, "I think life is serious, and you should take it seriously, but in rock n roll either have a laugh or don't come to the party... so much of rock 'n' roll has become what I would call Glory Rock, with family values. It's the irreverance in rock that was always the turn on."
"...11 songs of nonchalant defiance, hard-edged resignation and occasionally crumpled vulnerability that show off her enduring appeal." -Mojo
"This new chapter could prove to be one of the most compelling of her storied career." -The Independent
"Energetic and consistently surprising." -The Observer
