Swedish singer-songwriter presents orchestrated pop

Loney Dear
is still Swedish singer-songwriter Emil Svanängen. Following on from his acclaimed album ‘Dear John’ in 2009, this year he released the wonderfully beautiful ‘Hall Music’. After the Dear John tour he played an extensive tour of his homeland with a chamber orchestra. This forced him to view his entire oeuvre through other eyes and so it was that Svanängen realised that his folky pop songs could carry pretty complex orchestrations. What's more, this sixth studio album is infused with the themes pleasure and melancholy, both musically and lyrically.
 
‘Loney Dear houdt van songs die klein beginnen en almaar groeien, zoals een sneeuwbal die van een helling rolt. Zo is ‘Name’ een langzaam aanzwellende mantra, krijgt het akoestisch aangezette ‘D Major’ gaandeweg het gezelschap van blazers en mondt ‘I Dreamed About You’ in een extatische climax’. (www.cobra.be)
‘Chiming, quietly orchestral’ (Stereogum)
‘Some wonderfully sad Swedish pop, made cheerful by twinkling percussion and a gorgeous melody’. (Guardian)

Support-act will be Dutch composer Charles Frail whose repertoire contains suites and serenades. On 'Morning, It Breathes' Frail attempts to give form to the break of day, to capture the misty morning breathe, the combination of dozing and dreaming, the strange sights that a dream can give rise to when one awakens and sleeps and sleeps and awakens. Both HUMO and Focus Knack have already loaded Frail with stars.
