Lykke Li’s debut album will get a UK release this summer.

Youth Novels arrived through Li’s own LL Recordings label in home country Sweden in January, but recent success and exposure means the record will be brought to a wider audience on the 2nd of June.

There are also a few live dates, but first a tracklisting for the Bjorn-of-Peter-Bjorn-and-John-produced album:

‘Melodies and Desires’
‘Dance Dance Dance’
‘I’m Good, I’m Gone’
‘Let it Fall’
‘My Love’
‘Tonight’
‘Little Bit’
‘Hanging High’
‘This Trumpet in my Head’
‘Complained Department’
‘Breaking it Up’
‘Everybody but me’
‘Time Flies’
‘Window Blues’

Live shows:

April
18/19 London Camden Crawl
23 Manchester Roadhouse
24 Glasgow Admiral
25 Birmingham Glee
28 London Scala

That last date at the Scala will see Li supporting Sebastian Tellier.

after reading about her in NME, just wonderful. I think she's also playing Push at Astoria 2 on apr 26th

Only heard 'Little Bit'

and that's obviously AMAZING but are the other tunes as good? Hope so...

The album

is excellent, but her best song isn't on it. The Christoffer remix of 'Everybody But Me' is so brilliantly one hundred per cent amazing - it's floating around somewhere for free (legitimately) on the internet.
