Fresh Face | Lykke Li
So much talent is coming out of Sweden these days and making a global impact. Swedish songstress LYKKE LI is no exception. The Stockholm native is all but 22 years of age, but her debut album, Youth Novels, has already made heads turn.
The album is a fusion of electronic pop-rock with a little new age thrown into the mix. Lykke Li's raspy, almost childlike voice floats above really lightly-layered instrumentals. On "Little Bit," Lykke Li's sad and delicate vocals are balanced with very minimal percussion, while her debut runaway single, "I'm Good I'm Gone" is much more assertive, bouncy pop.
She's on a mad touring schedule right now. Recently in North America opening for Swedish comrade El Perro Del Mar, Lykke Li is currently touring Europe but will return to North America in the fall.
Be sure to check her out live when you can, but for right now, satisfy your Lykke Li cravings with the videos (under the cut)!
