CLOSE YOUR EYES is the English-language counterpart to ionnalee’s Swedish album BLUND, released simultaneously on September 13, 2024. Two albums share the same core songs but offers a distinct difference in song meanings, clarity and emotional immediacy. Built on sparse electronics, atmospherics and ionnalee’s unmistakable vocals and poetry, the album explores lucid dreaming and the contrasts between hopes, dreams and reality and takes the dream pop genre to the next level.

BLUND is the Swedish-language counterpart to ionnalee’s English album CLOSE YOUR EYES, released simultaneously on September 13 2024. While the two albums share the same core songs, BLUND presents them in Swedish — offering a different emotional colour, cadence and intimacy. Built on sparse electronics, atmospherics and ionnalee’s unmistakable vocals and poetry, the album explores lucid dreaming and the contrasts between hopes, dreams and reality and takes the dream pop genre to the next level.

EVERYONE AFRAID TO BE FORGOTTEN is ionnalee’s first solo album following her groundbreaking work with iamamiwhoami, marking a bold new chapter in her artistic evolution. Released on February 16, 2018, the album fuses cinematic electronics, atmospheric pop, and ionnalee’s unmistakable vocals into a richly layered exploration of identity, vulnerability, and creative rebirth. Its themes are expanded through a visually striking one-hour accompanying film, which deepens the narrative with symbolic, dreamlike imagery. Together, the album and film form a cohesive audiovisual statement—an ambitious portrait of an artist stepping into her own light while carrying forward a decade of innovation.
