About Helienne Lindvall
Helienne Lindvall is an award-winning professional songwriter, musician and Board Director of the Ivors Academy (formerly the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers & Authors), as well as the writer behind the Guardian music industry columns Behind the Music and Plugged In. She Chairs the Ivors Academy Songwriter Committee as well as the Ivor Novello Awards Committee, and is the former Head of Business & Songwriter relations for the song data management platform Auddly, backed by hitmakers Max Martin and Abba’s Björn Ulvaeus. Hailing from Sweden, she worked as a session singer, recording artist and performer in Stockholm and NYC before settling in London, where she signed a publishing deal with BMG Scandinavia. Since then she’s been working with recording artists on both sides of the Atlantic, including Roger Sanchez, Big Daddy Wilson and the Dark Tenor, collaborating with award-winning writers including Jörgen Elofsson (Kelly Clarkson, Britney Spears), Patrik Berger (Icona Pop, Robyn) and Steve McEwan (Kenny Chesney, Carrie Underwood).

Her weekly column Behind The Music covered and analysed all areas of the music business, from the creative process to issues surrounding copyright. In September 2012, her next column, Plugged In, launched on MediaGuardian – and she contributed a chapter for the Swedish book Myten om Internet (The Myth of the Internet). Helienne has written columns for Digital Music News, Netopia, The Musician, The Australian and STIM-Magasinet, and regularly appears on Sky News, the BBC, Irish National Radio and Swedish National Radio, championing songwriters’ rights, copyright and discussing other music industry issues.
