Lykke Li announces new single

As we’d hoped, the third single to be taken from Lykke Li’s acclaimed second album Wounded Rhymes will be the brilliant ’60s girl-group influenced ‘Sadness Is A Blessing’. It’ll be released on May 16, leading to up to a summer of festivals that will include the UK’s own End Of The Road and Lovebox.
