Already a star in her native Sweden, singer/songwriter Anna Ternheim is poised to bring audiences to their knees with her first official U.S. full-length release and Decca debut, Halfway to Fivepoints.

Ternheim’s hauntingly poetic style- evident in both her vocals and eloquent songwriting- can be heard on every achingly beautiful song. One of the largest newspapers in Sweden was quoted as saying that Anna has “a voice that cuts like a knife…so beautiful it makes you want to cry.”

Halfway to Fivepoints will be in stores on April 22nd with an 11 major city tour across North America to support the release. New York City residents will get an early treat as Ternheim previews selections from her new album for 3 intimate shows before hitting the road in May.

Albums
2004 - Somebody Outside 安娜唐涵 / 未歸人

※繼Lisa Loeb、Jewel、Shawn Colvin...之後最值得期待的創作才女
※榮膺瑞典葛萊美音樂盛會「最佳新人」獎 並入圍「最佳女歌手/最佳作詞人/最佳作曲人」等獎項
※平靜中隱約感受些許悽愴 嗓音如呼吸般自然 讓聽者腦海浮現美麗圖像
　　她的聲音可以在平靜中隱約感受些許悽愴、她的聲音提供聆聽者腦海中一幅美麗圖像、她的聲音毫不矯情做作自然如呼吸般感受到它的存在，一位優質的創作型才女，雖然有著令人想多看幾眼的出色外表，但她絕對不是拿著吉他裝模作樣，唱著不知所云的曲式，若你喜歡Lisa Loeb、Jewel、Sophie Zelmani、Shawn Colvin…等人作品，Anna Ternheim將會是你目光鎖定的下個目標。

　　正值10歲上國小年紀，Anna除了忙著學校課業外，已經開始把玩吉他、譜寫歌曲、公開表演，一身才華展現像似天生就該吃這行飯。曾花一年旅行至美國亞特蘭大，Anna組織起自己第一支樂團Sova，參與當地音樂祭典以及俱樂部之現場演出。回到瑞典斯德哥爾摩後，Anna繼續埋首創作，並前往瑞士找尋音樂靈感，同時學習法文，兩年後返回家鄉正式成立自己的專屬樂團，著手錄製個人專輯。2003年率先以Acoustic方式發行同名EP『Anna Ternheim』，贏得瑞典當地知名歌手推崇，同獲主流大廠支持簽入旗下。

　　【Somebody Outside】是Anna Ternheim站上國際舞台的初次見面禮，此張一鳴驚人之作，獲得瑞典當地如同葛萊美般重要的音樂盛會「最佳新人」獎，同時提名於「最佳女歌手」、「最佳作詞人」、「最佳作曲人」等獎項。整張專輯幾乎全出自Anna手筆，吉他簡單伴奏下牽引出開場曲"To Be Gone"，搭配微微沙啞低沉嗓音，透出些許憂鬱氣氛；接著"Better Be"如位低吟走唱歌手般，隨性卻能帶出內心悸動波盪，流暢音符溫和了四周冰冷溼度；以Acoustic方式演繹之"I’ll Follow You Tonight"，無任何多餘音頻綴飾，散發最自然的聆聽觸感；如同"A Voice To Calm You Down"歌名所示，Anna的歌聲不自覺讓人心情沉澱下來，浮躁感被旋律帶走沖逝，雖然只有十首歌曲，卻可暫時與這喧囂世界脫離，進入Anna無壓的音樂世界中，讓內心情感毫無拘束全然釋放！
