Last year's edition of The Soul of Christmas was a real smash hit with sold-out concerts around the country. This time, Samuel Ljungblahd and the Bohuslän Big Band bring a new guest - none other than Sarah Dawn Finer. It will be a Christmas concert with Motown-scented soul, gospel, jazz and Christmas classics.

Sarah Dawn Finer and Samuel Ljungblahd have sung together several times before and have really found each other in the musical meeting. Sarah Dawn Finer and Bohuslän Big Band have also collaborated before. Now it will be the first time that they all meet on the same stage.

Last year, Samuel Ljungblahd and Bohuslän Big Band released the Christmas album The Soul of Christmas, which included two completely newly written Christmas songs - Believing in Christmas and Gift of Love. For this year's tour, Samuel Ljungblahd and Sarah Dawn Finer have written a brand new song together.

Take the chance to experience this Christmas concert where two of the country's absolute best singing voices meet Sweden's sharpest big band. Swing, soul and Christmas spirit are promised!
