God Warrior of the Week

God Warrior of the Week May 25th is

Lykke Li

What is there not to like about Lykke Li? She’s a cute girl from Stockholm, Sweden singing catchy light indie pop songs about love. This new artist is taking over the blogosphere with her unique vocals reminiscent of Joanna Newsom.  It is the perfect soundtrack for late summer nights.

I really have no idea what is going on with her newest album, Youth Novel or when it is going to be released in the US. I do know that the album was produced by Bjorn from Peter, Bjorn and John and that’s just a reason enough to show why Swedes rock. Those Swedes just know how to mass produce the sweetest music makers. If you can’t wait, like me, then you can head over to The Hood Internet because they have a mash up that is way too legit to quit. You can also buy her EP, Little Bit off Itunes which reaffirms how awesome her album is going to be. What I’m saying is that she’s got just enough ‘tude to be a great God Warrior and I recommend hyping as much Lykke Li as possible. If you haven’t heard of her, it stops today!

She is currently on tour with El Perro Del Mar which couldn’t be a better match for a bill.  That would just fulfill my need for flowy indie pop jams for the summer.  Check out some clap driven songs below!
