Risa Andersson is a Japanese musician based in Stockholm, Sweden, who is best known for her work with Swedish metal band Frantic Amber. Her session work for the band has included playing both bass and guitar. Having grown up in Nagoya, Japan, Risa met Fredrik Andersson, who was touring with Amon Amarth at the time. Later, they married and the couple made Sweden their home. On a visit to her native Japan, Risa swung by Roppongi Rocks headquarters in Tokyo for a chat with Stefan Nilsson. Risa talked about being a session player, having three Japanese ladies in a Swedish band with only one Swedish member, whether it is more fun playing guitar or bass and much more.
This interview was filmed at Roppongi Rocks headquarters in Roppongi, Tokyo, Japan, on 11th February 2026.
