Mary Mi x J.A.E – Blind

Mary Mi is a Swedish indie-pop artist with a thing for playful melodies, messy, big soundscapes and brimming drums. In November 2021 Mary Mi released the concept EP ‘’In the Hall of the Mountain King’’, where she used famous classical pieces from guys like Beethoven and Grieg and turned it into modern indie pop, a sound described as “impressive and very groovy” by HYMN. She has also been supported & noticed by Gaffa, Sveriges Radio (P4 Nästa), SVT (soundtrack for “Lantisar”) etc. 

J.A.E‘s sound is a combination of strong melodies, a consistent melancholic nerve, and a fluid gender expression, which is not least to be found in Erik’s bubbling soulful voice, fragile and clear, that is the foundation in all productions.Erik has previously danced in Eurovision and participated in the Swedish Melodifestivalen, as lead singer in the synth duo The Lovers of Valdaro. He is educated at Balettakademin in Gothenburg and has since performed in musical theatre productions in over 10 years. He’s played the leading role in Priscilla at Göta Lejon in Stockholm and the role of Don Lockwood in Singing in the Rain at Kristianstad Theater. Earlier this year he was on tour in Sweden with Jesus Christ Superstar.

In 2021, Erik released several songs together with artists such as Luca Debonaire, MVRE, Gatby and Miss Sister on the releases “Rewind” (EP), “Play” (album) and “Pause” (acoustic album). Erik’s songs have been supported by blogs like 360 MagazineAlfitude and Music & Fashion Blog and Spotify have included his songs in playlists such as “New Music Friday Norway” and “Ny Pop.”
