Together with Jennie Abrahamson, she was an opening act Jennie + Linnea and background singer and tour cellist on Peter Gabriel's Back to Front-So tour from 2012 to the end of 2014. Both thus replaced the originally scheduled Ane Brun with her band as support act, which would have also included Linnea Olsson,[2] and Linnea Olsson replaced Ane Brun as background singer.[3][4][5]
She was the singer for the 2019 rhythm-action video game Sayonara Wild Hearts,[6][non-primary source needed] with music composed by Daniel Olsén and Jonathan Eng.
