Rebecca Digerwall is from Pajala, Sweden, there she formed the electro-pop-punk duo The Magnettes with Sanna Kalla. The music was a way to rebel against the northern silence, blending new wave, disco and twin-vocal melancholy while singing about love, heartaches and the haze of youth.

She has been part of several international writing camps around the world. With writers from both Denmark and USA she wrote an hour long concert that was performed on instruments made with ice.
For the moment she has written songs for The Magnettes and several AD-campaigns. The Magnettes has a great deal of success and has played large showcase festivals like South by Southwest, New Music Seminar and The Great Escape.
