Loney Dear, 2 new singles : Sum & Hulls

Article : Antoine Morin


Rather absent for most of the six years since his last album in 2011, it is the return of singer-songwriter Loney Dear with 2 brand new singles : Hull followed by the song : Sum. His real name being Emil Svanängen, the Jönköping native is active since 2003 and has released several albums, with his last three being under labels (Sub Pop, Polyvinyl Record Co). Now under the Real World Records label, he will publish his new album simply called Loney Dear on September 29th.

Until we can hear the whole tracklist, we can speculate on what the album will look like thanks to those 2 news singles, that are both offering us an indie and quite electronic sound with fairly dark tendencies, even if the whole thing in itself is a bewitching experience. With a seemingly flawless production and an arrangement that has a stimulating diversity, the song already obtain a certain success and gives a reason to all independent music fans to be enthusiastic!

Loney Dear, will play in Paris on September 27th at Le Pop Up du Label
And at the Philarmonie de Paris on February 28th 2018
