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.

Lykke in Glasgow
So looking forward to seeing Lykke Li at the tiny wee admiral in Glasgow. (got my tickets ages ago).What i've seen and heard of her so far she is a genuine and exciting creative talent.
Only heard 'Little Bit'
and that's obviously AMAZING but are the other tunes as good? Hope so...
Yeap, one of the best albums this year
STACKED FULL OF GREAT POP TUNES
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.
cheers for that
lovely stuff: Hype Machine revealed all. also great is another extra track "Tonight" which you can download from her myspace
doh
looks like they are the two extra tracks on the UK edition...
