EBBA

NYC-based Swedish singer-songwriter-pianist EBBA is reshaping what it means to be a jazz artist in 2025. A Berklee Presidential Scholar and recent graduate, she moves fluidly between jazz sophistication and raw, modern songwriting, carving out a sound that’s both fearless and arrestingly original.

Fresh off the road with Jon Batiste adding keys and vocals to his global tour and to his latest album Big Money, EBBA has already proven she can hold her own alongside one of music’s most adventurous voices. She also co-writes and performs with New York outfit Dana and Alden (Concord Jazz), further flexing her range across genres.

EBBA is also featured on the forthcoming Talking Heads tribute album Naive Melodies, joining an eclectic lineup that includes Aja Monet, Bilal, Georgia Anne Muldrow and  Miguel Atwood-Ferguson. Her contribution reimagines the iconic band through her own hybrid of jazz fluency, Scandinavian sensitivity, and contemporary edge.

Now splitting time between New York and Los Angeles, EBBA is crafting her debut album with heavyweight producers Aidan Spiro (Heavy Duty Music), Tim Anderson (Julius Rodriguez, Solange) and Homer Steinweiss (El Michels, Clairo). With sharp instincts, magnetic stage presence, and a refusal to stay in one lane, EBBA is emerging as one of the boldest new voices in jazz and beyond.
