The Soul Of Christmas

The Soul of Christmas 2025 – Linnea Henriksson, Samuel Ljungblahd and Sabina Ddumba with Norrbotten Big Band

 

The successful tour The Soul of Christmas reaches new heights. Just like last year, it features gospel star Samuel Ljungblahd and the Norrbotten Big Band, who this year will be joined by two exciting new additions in the form of pop and jazz singers Linnea Henriksson and Sabina Ddumba.

Norrbotten Big Band and soul and gospel star Samuel Ljungblahd are collaborating again on the tour The Soul of Christmas in December 2025. They have previously done several acclaimed tours together, most recently last year. This time they will also be joined by pop and jazz singer Linnea Henriksson and pop singer Sabina Ddubma.

The music is of the utmost world class, with new songs, classic arrangements and a lot of Christmas spirit.

Joakim Milder, artistic director of Norrbotten Big Band, is already looking forward to it.

– It will be an adventure! It is always special to come to these concert halls and play for so many people. Yes, it is truly a favor, says Milder.

Samuel Ljungblahd:

 

– Total joy to go on tour with The Soul Of Christmas again!! That I and Norrbotten Big Band get to do this this year together with the magical Linnea Henriksson and the lovely Sabina Ddumba, will lift the tour to heavenly heights!! Let’s go!!!

 

Norrbotten Big Band has collaborated with Linnea Henriksson several times, including in connection with a Christmas tour in 2022. Last year they also did an emotional and successful concert tour together, where they played her music in a new way.

 

Linnea Henriksson is looking forward to a new reunion.

 

– You have to pinch yourself as an artist when you get to go on a tour you would otherwise have liked to go and see. It’s an incredible group to share the stage with and I can’t think of a better way to get in the Christmas spirit, she says.

 

Sabina Ddumba has previously collaborated with great artists such as Katy Perry and Danny Saucedo, but is new to this company. She was raised in the gospel tradition and broke through in 2015 with the hit single “Not too young”. In the same year, she was awarded as Newcomer of the Year at both the Grammis and P3 Guld Awards.

 

– If there is any way I want to welcome Christmas, it is together with Samuel Ljungblahd, Linnea Henriksson and the Norrbotten Big Band! I am so looking forward to sharing the stage and playing with these fantastic musicians, says Sabina Ddumba.
