A native of Skåne, Sweden, Lykke Li has a truly global and quirky approach to her music. Employing tools such as a bullhorn, analogue voice recorders and quirky objects-turned-percussion Li creates delicately layered songs that sound damn tough. Pulling from her personal life experience, this musician’s lyrics are bona fide pop (the kind you can’t get out of your head – in a good way):

Hands down, Im too proud for love,
But with eyes shut, it’s you I’m thinking of.
But how we move from A to B, can’t be up to me,
Cause I dont know.
Eye to eye, thigh to thigh,
I let go…
