JENS LEKMAN IN MANILA?
Jens Lekman just announced some dates for his upcoming Asian tour and he's willing to drop by the Philippines if someone sets up the concert. I'm planning to organize this show with Ayisse and at the moment it seems like a long shot from happening but we'd try anyway... or else I'm hoping I'd get my xmas money in advance and fly to Singapore, Malaysia or Indonesia where he's set to play next month. yeright.
I'll fail so much If I attempt to describe his music so here's an imported paragraph from wikipedia to give you an idea what his music's like...
Jens Martin Lekman (pronounced "Yens",[1] born 6 February 1981 in Angered, Sweden) is a Swedish indie pop musician. His music is guitar-based pop with heavy use of samples and strings; the lyrics are often witty, romantic, and melancholic. His work is heavily influenced by that of Jonathan Richman and Belle and Sebastian, and he has been likened to Stephin Merritt (of The Magnetic Fields) and David Byrne.
