Now here's something really special. Monty is the alias of one David Pagmar, a very talented Swede who was a surprise guest performer in my brother's wedding this Saturday. My brother and his wife had fallen in love with David's music after a chance encounter with this particular song and invited him to come play at their party. To their surprise he actually said yes.
"Paraply" is a Swedish version of the Rihanna hit "Umbrella", and David told me it was a very proud moment when the writers Jay-Z, The Drake and Tricky gave their unianimous approval and let him release the song as a single. Just listen for yourself to this gentle piano-led version of the song, and most of all, pay attention to David Pagmar's incredible voice, full of emotion and vulnerability. I became an instant fan, and I really hope you'll like this too. And by the way, he writes wonderful songs himself. There will be more to follow on the blog, so be prepared for some additional goodies!
Watch and listen
