New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Growing up in the small village of Vittangi in the northernmost part of Sweden, Yajna has overcome clinical depression and the male-dominated world of extreme sports to become one of the most successful businesswomen in the country and now turns her focus to her first love - music. Her first English-language release is You Are Beautiful, the first of a trilogy of tracks she's entitled The Rising Phoenix, a reflection of her personal journey from her lowest ebb to empowerment and success.
In 2018 Yajna decided to follow her heart and dreams to become an artist and went solo. Her debut song as a solo artist was Natten Lång, a Swedish ballad about a painful breakup. After significant radio success in her homeland, Yajna found her own sound, an epic and dreamy mix of soul and RnB and chose London as her base, having fallen in love with a city she now calls her second home after it allowed her to spread her wings as an artist creatively. It was her she recorded her trilogy of songs, The Rising Phoenix, representing her journey from the ashes of her lowest points, which included electro-shock treatment as the result of a mentally abusive relationship and subsequent divorce, to her triumphant emergence from the fire, stronger than ever and with a message of hope, love and power. You Are Beautiful is the first single:
"This song is about how all of us are beautiful within ourselves. I want to give people a message to be true to themselves and tell themselves they are beautiful".
