Bonander sings about suppressed anger from her childhood in the new single 'Gone in the Wind'

Ensuring a handful of poignant singles last year, Bonander enters 2021 with the immense and spellbinding paroxysm, ‘Gone In The Wind’ out on 12th February 2021 via Icons Creating Evil Art. The release comes ahead of her forthcoming album titled 'Things We Don’t Talk About'.

Bonander is the shorthand for Elliner Sterner Bonander. Sporting the role of musician, arranger and producer, the native Swede is a woman unchained, injecting darkness into the vein of candied pop with her tropes of existentialism and feminist revolt.

Following the arc of ‘Backseat’ and ‘Martha’, Bonander’s latest single, ‘Gone In The Wind’ is an emotional outpour of lost sisterhood. Tribal thrashes of drums, pipe organ and soaring vocals combine to manifest the pain and frustration at the heart of the song.

She says, “The song is about abandonment of a person who's been like a sister to you, someone you admire and cherish… The pipe organ and strings are the most emotional instrumentation I can think of. They represent that suppressed feeling of anger and frustration, that later in the song is set free.”

‘Gone in the Wind’ is released everywhere on February 12th, 2021 via Icons Creating Evil Art.

lyrics

Sometimes you were my sister
Sometimes you were my friend
Never another mother,
maybe you should have been one

One day you just weren’t there,
Gone in the wind abroad
If I were a grown up,
I wouldn’t have waited for your call

People call you crazy
I just called you wild
People call you crazy
I just thought you tried your best

Remember when you saw me?
Thought you could see right through
Told med “think less feel more,”
tell me why I felt so much for you?

People call you crazy
I just called you wild
People call you crazy
I just thought you tried your best

People call you crazy
I just called you wild
People call you crazy
I just thought you tried your best

Gone, gone in the wind
Gone, gone in the wind

Bonander Stockholm, Sweden

Dream away in a feministic witchland, where you can find drama, darkness and a hint of quirkiness. Ellinor Sterner Bonander has a sound that pushes boundaries while remaining accessible. With a vocal style reminiscent of Björk and Kate Bush she combines dark and dramatic pop with just the right amount of experimental, electronic sounds and always keeps the listener on her toes. ... more
