Jens Lekman is a Swedish musician born on February 06, 1981 in Angered, Sweden. Known for his heartfelt and introspective songwriting, Lekman has captivated audiences with his unique blend of indie pop and folk music.

Influenced by artists such as El Perro del Mar, Camera Obscura, and The Magnetic Fields, Lekman's music resonates with listeners through its relatable lyrics and catchy melodies. His songs often explore themes of love, loss, and the complexities of human relationships.

With a discography that spans over two decades, Jens Lekman has established himself as a respected figure in the indie music scene. His albums have received critical acclaim and he continues to tour internationally, captivating audiences with his charismatic stage presence.

Jens Lekman describes his new record, Life Will See You Now, playfully, but also honestly, as "a midlife-crisis disco album; it's an existentialist record, about seeing the consequences of your choices". It's a typical Lekman album in several ways: sly humour is key to its heartfelt nature; it inverts pop's writing norm by making songs with sad concerns sound happy and songs with a happy subject sound sad; and it plays with notions of identity and the self. But, as the title suggests, it also represents a significant move forward, as if across a threshold. It's the more expansive, upbeat sound of a revitalised Lekman, who is just one of many characters in his new stories about the magic and messiness of different kinds of relationships.
