Light Vibes at The Iron Bear

Date TBA

Love Wins

The Swedish indie pop duo Light Vibes made their debut in spring 2018 with the Following EP to acclaim from The Line of Best Fit, The 405, Ja Ja Ja and more – but that release was a first taste of a project over five years in the works. The duo of Erik Klinga and Mathias Zachrisson had slowly been creating a world of their own in the downtime between touring and recording with the acclaimed Swedish indie pop act Simian Ghost, before finally setting out on their own.

Their debut album Past/Present is the culmination of that work, a dreamy and ambitious record floating between psychedelia and indie pop, offering up a shimmering soundscape that draws both toward the Nordic winters and tropical summers. Past/Present is due on January 25, 2019 via Fading Trails Recordings on limited edition vinyl and digitally.
