Loney Dear – Grekerna

Biography
Jönköping, Sweden (2009 – present)
Until 2009, Svanängen recorded and released four records as Loney, dear. In 2009 he slightly changed this name, skipping the comma in Loney, dear. He is now recording and releasing music as Loney Dear. Both names exist on Last.fm, so (for as long as the two are not merged) please try to get this right: it differs per album!
Loney Dear is the correct moniker for the following albums:
Dear John (2009)
Hall Music (2011)
The The Year of River Fontana (2003), Citadel Band (2004), Sologne (2006)
and Loney, Noir (2007) albums were recorded and released as Loney, dear.
In either his tiny Stockholm studio apartment or the basement of his parents’ house, and with a dedication bordering upon manic, Emil discreetly builds Loney, dear songs using a modest home studio set-up. The music of Loney, dear has been aptly described as “soulful indie folk with a powerful mini orchestra.”
Layer upon layer, adding instrumentation and vocals, these songs seem to bloom like time-lapse photography, depicting glimpsed scenes of modern disaffection and timeless yearning. When performing live, Loney, dear becomes the band Emil conjures alone in his home studio, and mutates into a full, five-member band complete with guitar, sax, drums, organ and clarinet, shouts and claps.

why is this guy not a worldwide phenomenon like Sigur Ros, Bon Iver, Gotye and Miike Snow ??? He's such a brilliant amazing songwriter. A class apart.

I totally agree, but when using Spotify, it's not possible to change the ID3 tags.
