or listen first:

Sweden’s Frida Hyvonen’s got a bold personality and a defiant voice to match. She toured with Denmark’s Under Byen and stopped by at Bowery Ballroom in March. There she played a solid solo set, asking the audience to buy her a glass of white wine and promising to buy one for whoever volunteered later. “You Never Got Me Right,” a personal favorite of mine from the album, gives an example of her smart lyrics and angsty folk sound. In “Cricket” I’ve left a little bit of the amusing conversation in the beginning. It’ll fill you in on the musical Pudel, and on how Frida feels about some Poodle owners.
