Early last year a new wave of Swedish artists began to receive mainstream attention. A year on from ‘The Whistle Song' and the Scandinavian invasion is no transient novelty genre. The latest artist set to bust out of her home land is 22-year-old Lykke Li, whose could-it-be love song 'Little Bit' has laid its hat in head. It's all about that stalemate you reach right at the beginning, when you are pretty sure your crush is requited, but making any kind of declaration would send your lunch in the wrong direction.

Lykke Li has all the awkward charms of the modern Swedish pop genius - whimsical lyrics, contagious melodies and really real songs about love and life. Not to mention, shei s cute as hell. Her three-track EP was floating around the internet acouple months back, and finally there is more as Lykke Li officially releases her debut album YOUTH NOVELS (in Sweden only) this month. Listen to it here. Latest news is she is in talks with a number of record labels across the globe, and all will be revealed within the next couple weeks.
