JENS LEKMAN, 6/15 MCCARREN PARK (NORTHSIDE FESTIVAL)

This quite lovely-sounding Swedish gentleman pulled us in once again for more melodic, hypnotizing songs last year with his catchy tune, "Argument with Myself." You know, that song where he's literally having an argument.... by himself. You know, that song you listened to again and again on Hype Machine? Yup, this is that guy.  Jens Lekman has been around for awhile now, building a loyal fan base around the world. Every song seems more honest, more intimate, and more beautiful than the one before. Listening to his lyrics is like getting a glimpse into his journal of hope and heartbreak. He's finally back in the U.S. of A (!!!!) and your Friday night will be well spent listening to a mellow and beautiful set by Jens Lekman. We'll leave you with one of his newer ones, but also some great older ones...let the reminiscing begin.  Tickets
