Dybdahl UK delay

Norwegian singer/songwriter Thomas Dybdahl's debut UK single "From grace" has been pushed back to August 31 with his album to follow on September 14.

MP3: Lesli - Half a wing

Another day, another duet. Swedish troubadour Lesli doesn't stray from the typical AAA party line; it's all very nice and pleasant and easygoing and easy on the ears. I hear bits of Jeff Buckley in his voice, maybe some Thomas Dybdahl too, though not so smokey. Heavier on the former by far. So yeah, not subversive in the least and nothing you haven't heard before. Which is not to say it's bad; he actually pulls it off quite well, wisely keeping the arrangements sparse and open. The muted horns on single "Half a wing" give it a distinct, warm 70s flavor, too. As for duet partner Frida Öhrn's (Oh Laura) contributions, she does a fine job of supporting the main act without eclipsing him. They elevate the material by subtly wrapping their voices together. It's actually that combined lowkey approach that wins it -- the casual atmosphere is endlessly charming. Without it, all allure would be lost. Perhaps not quite the sort of song that instantly captivates, but definitely one worth noting.

Lesli - Half a wing (ft. Frida Öhrn)

Norwegian singer/songwriter Thomas Dybdahl will do a one-off full band show at Dingswall in London on October 23.

Micke from Sweden (aka Micke Lohse of Atomic Swing) has confirmed that his new album "Waiting for the end" will be released on September 26 via Nordic Notes. As mentioned before, the album was produced by Janove Ottesen of Kaizers Orchestra and features guest contributions from artists such as Børge Fjordheim (Cloroform), Sjur Miljeteig (The Leather Fashion), John Lilja (Jackman, Thomas Dybdahl) and Morten Abel.
