After penning songs for Best Fit Recordings artists Sportsman and Faye, London via Stockholm producer Victor Holmberg returns today with a second track under his 1987 guise.
After impressing last year with the epic romanticism of “Ocean”, Holmberg continues to tug at the heartstrings with the delicate “Michelle”. Again, sung entirely in Swedish, the track is all slow burning melancholy that builds to a wonderfully emotive conclusion.
Now signed with Parlophone, 1987 is currently at work on his debut album.
