Although the 37-year-old singer Christina Gustafsson has been performing in her native Sweden for quite a few years, Moments Free is her long overdue recording debut. She wrote all but one selection (the pop song "Daydream") and sings throughout in English without any real accent. The music is certainly diverse, from swinging jazz and ballads to folk music and pop that slightly recalls Norah Jones. Gustafsson's voice is quite attractive and flexible, and she shows consistent enthusiasm, clearly loving singing. In addition, her lyrics are quite intelligent and occasionally insightful. Her backup group is impressive, with guitarist Max Schultz getting a fair amount of solo space and the musicians having a very good feel for her originals. Clearly Christina Gustafsson has a potentially significant future, no matter which direction she ultimately decides to take. ~ Scott Yanow http://www.allmusic.com/album/moments-free-mw0001096186
