Jens Lekman Announces New Album, “I Know What Love Isn’t”
Posted: June 7th, 2012 by katie
Jens Lekman announces his first full length in five years! Titled I Know What Love Isn’t, it’s the follow-up to the critically acclaimed Night Falls Over Kortedala. The album is out on September 4.
The opening track sets the stage for what’s to come: a simple melody picked out on an echoey upright piano, like a disused one you might find in a schoolroom or church. The tune, “Every Little Hair Knows Your Name” is bittersweet but gentle, with a sustain that fades into the acoustic guitar and twinkling flourish of chimes on “Erica America,” the album’s first single – listen below.
See Jens on tour! Dates listed HERE.
