Pelle Carlberg - The Lilac Time (2008)


Pelle Carlberg makes cozy, feel-good chamber pop in the spirit of Belle and Sebastian, with sweet harmonies, infectious melodies and upbeat rhythms. Hailing from Stockholm, Sweden, Carlberg previously fronted the six-piece group Edson before embarking on a solo career. His latest release is The Lilac Time on Twenty Seven Records.

Carlberg's official bio says he's "been playing in bands since the Middle Ages" but is currently focusing on his own work. Carlberg plays most of the instruments on his latest album, with occasional support from Henrik Nilsson on drums and Helena Soderman on backing vocals and piano. Recommended if you like Belle & Sebastian, Cat Stevens, Jens Lekman, Sondre Lerche, Kings of Convenience
