Born and raised in the Nordic forests of Sweden on a small crop of land called Soller\xf6n \u2013 known as the Island of the Sun and the inspiration for her extraordinary debut album \u2013 Winona Oak is every bit as enchanting as her origin story. With a childhood spent encountering more animals than people, she grew up a trained horse acrobat and pursued creative expression however she could, writing poetry and songs and playing violin and piano from a young age. After moving to Stockholm to pursue her passion for music, Winona honed her craft and landed a deal with Atlantic/Neon Gold Records. Soon after, the budding songstress met Australian electronic maestro What So Not and the two co-wrote his singles \u201cBetter,\u201d \u201cStuck In Orbit\u201c and \u201cBeautiful,\u201d which highlighted Winona as the track\u2019s featured artist. She then went on to collaborate with The Chainsmokers on their RIAA gold-certified hit single, \u201cHope\u201d and soon followed with her runaway success debut solo single, \u201dHe Don\u2019t Love Me.\u201d In 2020, Winona released her first EP, Closure, followed quickly by her critically acclaimed sophomore EP, SHE, earning praise from the likes of PAPER, which declared, \u201cWinona Oak is a name you should know.\u201d Winona celebrated SHE with a stirring live performance of the title track as part of CBS\u2019 The Late Show with Stephen Colbert\u2019s #PLAYATHOME series, streaming HERE. 2021 saw Winona collaborate with breakout bedroom pop star ELIO on \u201cNobody Loves Me.\u201d Now, with the long-anticipated arrival of Island of the Sun, Winona Oak fully affirms her remarkable promise as one of today\u2019s most original and compelling new artists.
