about

Forty-three years ago, the late great Danish singer and actress Lone Kellermann headed into Werner Studios with a group of prominent
musicians and peace activists from the local 1970s protest music scene. This included singer- songwriters and guitarists Eva Langkow and Birte Zander, drummer Marianne Rottbøll, pianist/ harmonicist Nina Frederiksen, bassist Marianne Hall Christensen and guitarist Pia Nyrup Boudigaard.

During that session, they recorded two soul-infused folk songs, ‘Kvinder For Fred’ and ‘Kærlighed Og Fred’ (Love and Peace), both of which were released together in 1980 as a fundraiser for the launch of the historic pacifist network for women, Kvinder for Fred (Women For Peace).

In 2023, the late Lone Kellermann would have turned 80. Frederiksberg Records is pleased to present the first official digital reissues of ‘Kvinder For Fred’ and ‘Kærlighed og Fred’ to celebrate this milestone. As Zander sees it, it’s sadly a perfect time for these songs to return to the world. “Unfortunately, the message in the music, one of ‘Kærlighed og Fred’, seems more relevant currently than in any recent times.”
