We all carry something, but the mountains look different for each of us. In Vera Vinter’s new single Jag bär mina berg (I Carry My Mountains), they appear in everyday moments: a steaming coffee cup, a bike straining uphill, a heart racing in the wind. And they follow us into the night – into the city, into the bars – where a fleeting sense of freedom collides with the weight of roots, memories and dreams that never quite let go.

Stripped back to voice and guitar, the song is as bare as a diary page. In its simplicity the mountains become clearer – both the ones we carry inside and the ones we try to leave behind.
