Ex Voto / Silent Love

Christian Kjellvander

Following acclaimed outings About Love and Loving Again and Hold Your Love Still, Christian Kjellvander returns with Ex Voto / The Silent Love, a quietly devastating and profoundly intimate record that completes an unofficial trilogy exploring love in its most tender, conflicted, and spiritual forms. Originally conceived as an album of ten soft, calm country songs, Ex Voto gradually evolved into something more expansive, yet the embryo of that intention remains, pulsing gently beneath every track. The record opens with two stripped-back songs, flows into a louder, more dynamic centrepiece, then drifts back into stillness, mirroring the emotional journey of its creation. As with its predecessors, Ex Voto continues Christian’s exploration of themes like love, religion, the natural world, and beauty, subjects he approaches with poetic precision and emotional depth. But this album goes deeper. It is more intimate, more raw. Christian was in a different place when he began writing it, and while the gravitational centre of his artistry remains constant, that personal shift colours the entire record. Recorded live over a few days in an old summer house by the sea at Sweden’s southern tip, the album captures the breath and quiet of a room where no headphones were needed, where vocals bleed into the space through a PA, and every creak of the floorboards became part of the sound. The spectres of each voice and instrument haunt the multi-tracks like spirits lingering in a deep desert night. It’s romantic and cinematic, a kind of small-town noir transposed from the Texan wilderness to the Swedish coast. At the heart of the record is Kjellvander’s deep, expressive baritone and lyrical clarity, surrounded by a sparse yet richly textured palette: brush drums, bass clarinet, mournful cornet, Rhodes, synths, and the haunting counterpoint of female vocals.
