Fixation’s ability to seamlessly blend various musical elements and touch on relatable topics makes them a standout. Their music speaks to a broad audience, and they create a sound that resonates with a whole generation – not just fans of a specific genre. With a exciting year ahead and with rising popularity, there is no doubt that Fixation is claiming their positions as a rising force in the music scene.

There is so much talent here that it is almost touching, and what an amazing vocalist this band has in Jonas Hansen! It is simply a revelation. Wow!!”
