Last week Jens Lekman announced a 52-song project that would lead him to sculpt a song a week, and encourage him to share more music.
The second contribution to that series is here, titled "Postcard # 2". Two down, 50 to go!
It's a lot more ambitious than the premiere expedition, with slippery saxwork and grandiose motifs zooming through piano melodies. These aren't hastily slapped together to fill a quota, it's obvious that Lekman is making each a labour of love.
Check it out below.
