Live Review: Jens Lekman, Dianas, Emma Russack
"'If I'd known there'd be people behind me tonight, I'd have shaved the back of my neck,' he dryly remarks."
Jens Lekman
Jens Martin Lekman (pronounced [jɛns ˈmǎʈːɪn ˈlêːkman]; born 6 February 1981) is a Swedish musician. His music is guitar-based pop with heavy use of samples and strings, with lyrics that are often witty, romantic, and melancholic. His work is heavily influenced by Jonathan Richman and Belle & Sebastian, and he has been likened to Stephin Merritt (of The Magnetic Fields), David Byrne, and Scott Walker.
