Sassy 009 is the shape-shifting project from Oslo-based producer, songwriter and vocalist Sunniva Lindgård. Finding early acclaim with 2017’s Do You Mind EP and later evolving into 2021’s sultry, bass-driven Heart Ego mixtape. Over time, her sound has caught the attention of a growing circle of artists, leading to collaborations such as with Clairo on their track Lara, Don Toliver on his record OCTANE, and has brought her distinctive touch to a range of remix projects by artists such as Empress Of, Kito & Lolo Zouaï, MØ, Agar Agar among others. But for Lindgård, the forthcoming Dreamer+ is her true debut: a concept-driven album pieced together from nearly four years of studio effort, and an ambitious attempt to take complete control of her artistry. With guest features from Blood Orange, yunè pinku and BEA1991. Steered by freshly distorted vocals and elements of grunge, shoegaze, ‘90s beatronica and gauzy hyperpop, the album is a record of self-discovery and self-effacement at once, Dreamer+ is work of fiction at its core, a grim fairytale in which dreams and emotions are processed through a landscape of shapeshifting characters, dark forces and moral responsibilities. Its final form is a crystallising constellation of connected works - a bricolage of thought, feeling, and creative desire. Each element offers a familiar entry point into the same underlying themes: identity, memory, and the shifting boundaries of self - where the dreamer is the only witness.
