Ana Johnsson - We Are
Review by Zeke Franco
We Are, the third studio album by Swedish singer Ana Johnsson, is a collection of powerful and anthemic rock songs that showcase her impressive vocals and songwriting skills. Produced by Toby Gad, who has worked with artists like Beyoncé and Madonna, the album features a mix of hard-hitting tracks and more introspective ballads.
The opening track, "We Are," sets the tone for the album with its soaring chorus and uplifting lyrics about standing together and overcoming adversity. Other standout tracks include "Days of Summer," which features a catchy guitar riff and a driving beat, and "Exception," a slower ballad with heartfelt lyrics about the pain of letting go.
Throughout the album, Johnsson's vocals are a highlight, ranging from gritty and powerful to sweet and vulnerable. The production is also top-notch, with each track featuring a polished and dynamic sound that highlights the strengths of the songwriting.

Please more women in rock 'n' roll, we actually need it!
I swear I'll learn to play an instrument, so I will form a rock band with female vocals and two female guitars.
