Mariefred Sessions is the third extended play by Swedish singer-songwriter Erik Hassle, which was released in Sweden on 23 March 2011.[1] The EP resulted from a collaboration between Hassle and two members of Swedish rock band Kent, Joakim Berg and Martin Sköld. Mariefred Sessions was primarily recorded in Martin Sköld's studio in Mariefred, Sweden.[2] Two singles were released from the EP; "Are You Leaving" was released on 16 February 2011, and "Stay Away" was released on 6 July 2011.

Writing and production

The collaboration arose due to Kent lead singer Jocke Berg's desire to continue writing after Kent's summer tour of 2010.[3] Hassle was contacted for a preliminary studio session, after which Kent's bass guitarist, Martin Sköld, also became involved in the project. The EP was written, recorded and produced between autumn 2010 and spring 2011.
