New LP from The Sweptaways

Everyone's favourite Swedish all-female a cappella choir The Sweptaways release their third long player, Framtiden (The Future), on December 2nd. I've been waiting for this one for ages so couldn't be more thrilled that the big day is almost upon us.

The album represents something of a departure for the group as - rather than recording collaborations and cover versions of already famous songs as on their first two albums - they've written the lyrics themselves this time round, with original music by Swedish composers such as Sara Wilson, Sara Groves and Fredrik Gran.

Rather thrillingly, the gals have already put up a You Tube playlist of some of the tracks from Framtiden. I've only played it through once so far but The Future's already sounding distinctly bright to me.
