Jens Lekman has announced several UK tour dates to coincide with the release of new EP ‘An Argument With Myself’.
Released his breakthrough album ‘Night Falls Over Kortedala’ back in 2007, Jens Lekman seemed poised to reach a wider audience. However since then the Scandinavian has retreated from the limelight.
Preferring to focus on other artistic projects, Jens Lekman surprised fans by announcing a new EP earlier this year. Secretly Canadian will handle the release of ‘An Argument With Myself’ which is due to drop on September 19th.
A five track EP, Jens Lekman has now decided to give away the title track. In a statement the songwriter prefaces the new song:
“In the case ‘Jens Lekman vs. Jens Lekman,’ we will look closer at the evidence presented – the photo I had carried in my breastpocket for a whole year, the pressed honeysuckle, the wind so rich on summer and so sweet – how are these things connected and why are they relevant?”
