About this item

Lekman is a young pop crooner from Göteborg, Sweden. Eyes bright, heart wide open, he's become an overnight sensation with his home recorded magic and fantastic lyrics. It's hard to believe that he is only 23. His timeless elegance makes the big, beautiful suburban pop songs sound like they're already classics. With an angelic voice and golden ears he seems to be drinking from the same hard waters as the Carpenters, Harry Nilsson, the Magnetic Fields, "Runt"-era Todd Rundgren, Smog, the Modern Lovers, Rufus Wainwright, and Belle & Sebastian.
