Irina Bjorklund & Peter Fox

Irina Bjorklund (actress, singer, songwriter & musical saw player) wrote her first song at age of seven but is more known as an actress from Europe. She saw the french movie "Delicatessen" at the age of 16, and decided that she would make the Musical Saw her pension plan, just in case the acting thing wouldn't work out. She finally got the Saw she had dreamt of for her birthday a few years back, learned how to play it, and has ever since been incorporating it in her song writing and performance.

Irina grew up in Finland, France and Sweden, and uses the languages of each country as she writes and performs, along with English and Russian. She collaborated with composer Peter Fox on the soundtrack of the feature "Red is the Color of..." (in which she also plays the lead) in 2004. The pair decided to continue their collaboration and have now successfully been performing live in Los Angeles. They have released their first CD "Oh l'Amour" - an ode to Irina's native Finland, and her much beloved France.

The CD booklet is designed by Irina herself - it follows a mystical storyline, taking You on a journey from one song to another, guiding You through the landscapes of Karelia on the Russian border to a smokey late night bar with all it's characters in Montmartre in Paris...
