Britta Persson is a Swedish indie pop musician from Uppsala, Sweden. She has gone from making modest and very simple recordings to working with complex arrangements but always with the same straight to the point lyrics and a feeling in the melodies as if they were just meant to be. Britta Persson had her breakthrough in her native Sweden in 2006 with the album “Top Quality Bones and a Little Terrorist”. Additionally, Persson was the composer in the TV Series [https://m.imdb.com/title/tt10468622/ Dejta].{{Cite web |title=Britta Persson {{!}} Composer, Soundtrack |url=https://m.imdb.com/name/nm10185948/ |access-date=2025-04-09 |website=IMDb |language=en-US}} The single Winter Tour got high rotation on radio in Scandinavia and a couple of years later also got great recognition in Europe thanks to a TV advertising campaign.

2008 the follow-up album “Kill Hollywood Me” was released. It clearly showed a tendency and followed the direction towards a bigger sound and a greater production. Since the start Britta Persson has worked with artists such as Kristofer Åström and Camera Obscura.

In 2012, Persson helped co-write the song So Young So High by Swedish Duo Dada Life.
