Longing Lullabies

Released: 3rd May 2009

Kleerup was half of the act responsible for the number 1 hit single, 'With Every Heartbeat'. The other half was of course the feisty asymetrically fringed Robyn .  His melancholic electro-pop framed Robyn's ballad about break-up perfectly and secured it as one of the most prolific pop moments of 2007.    As they wrote the song together they agreed call it 'Robyn with Kleerup' on her album and 'Kleerup with Robyn' on his album.

He is already a massive star in is native home having won no less than three awards (Best Newcomer, Best Composer and Best Producer) at Sweden's 2009 Grammis music awards recently (the equivalent of our Brits).

Ok, so he's huge back home, is mates with Robyn and has had a number one single in the UK. So what you may ask.  Well this bearded lothario with grungy locks is about to embark on another assault of our shores with his own self-titled album.

'Kleerup' features collaborations with Lykke Li,  Marit Bergman, Titiyo  (Neneh Cherry's younger sister) and the of course includes his hit collaboration with Robyn.   Kleerup's songs are a mixture of his familiar formula of electronica and Swedish female vocal. Good thing this is a formula with proven results as each one is pure electro-pop perfection.

The lead single with Titiyo, 'Longing For Lullabies' encapsulates his warm and melancholic sound flawlessly. On the flip side emotive 'Until We Bleed', Kleerup draws a surprisingly warm performance from the blog friendly Lykke Li.  Plus there's a host of remixes that beef it up for the dancefloor from.

Available from May 17th, album release to follow on June 1st
