Found this one randomly from looking at new releases a couple weeks ago. The album is chilled out yet fun… like a mix between Jack Johnson and Nouvelle Vague. Very pleasant tunes. Their Wikipedia page just taught me another (Math and Physics Club taught me twee pop) distinction of indie pop: anorak pop. Isn’t that like a parka? Interesting. Also interesting is the fact that this is their 6th album! How have I not heard of them until now? I’m gonna blame the whole thing on the fact that they’re from Sweden. Out of sight, out of mind.
Here’s a video from another great track off of The Boy Who Couldn’t Stop Dreaming:
“Whatever You Want”
