Lykke Li captures "revenge heist energy" on single 'Lucky Again' to launch "Ram Dass for fuckboys" album 'The Afterparty’

Lykke Li’s sixth album, featuring a 17-piece orchestra, explores themes of revenge, shame, and despair, with live dates including Coachella and shows with Robyn and Wolf Alice.

  • Lykke Li, Swedish singer-songwriter, announced her sixth album The Afterparty and shared the Max Richter–sampling single `Lucky Again`.
  • At the end of last month she previewed The Afterparty at a listening party and suggested it could be her final record, confronting the 'lower self' with themes of revenge, shame and despair.
  • The project features ambitious arrangements, recorded in Stockholm with an orchestra, including nine tracks in 24 minutes and a `Four Seasons`/Max Richter sample, she suggested.
  • Touring plans include both Coachella weekends and international dates with Wolf Alice at Finsbury Park and Robyn at Palacio de los Deportes, Mexico City.
  • As Li returns to full-length albums, Neon Gold Records/Futures Music Group framed the signing as a full-circle moment, and The Afterparty is her first LP in four years, releasing on May 8.
