Sondre Lerche, the Norwegian born singer-songwriter and frequent topic on The Round Table, recently visited SPIN magazine's office in NYC to serenade the staff. Never have I wanted to work at SPIN magazine more than on this day. For those of us unlucky folks who weren't in attendence, SPIN has so graciously posted video footage of the performance as well as Sondre talking about his inspirations...

On the heels of this month’s great, Bacharach-loving Heartbeat Radio, Sondre Lerche returns to his favorite L.A. stomping grounds, the Troubadour, for a solo gig. He promised me on Twitter he would “bring the goods,” so let’s hold to it, huh? (Also this week: that schmuck Bon Iver’s playing the Fonda on Friday, if you’re [...]

Sondre Lerche’s new album, Heartbeat Radio, might be the Norwegian songwriter’s best collection yet — so you won’t want to miss his return to his (and my) favorite Los Angeles haunt, the Troubadour, on Sept. 24. (The album’s due Sept. 8.) As with his last few shows there, it’ll be solo electric.“Band is resting and [...]

The radio plays on and on. The heartbeat flat-lines.The Norwegian transplant Sondre Lerche, a music industry veteran at only 27, possesses considerable talent, but his new album Heartbeat Radio finds him working too hard toward no discernible end. The album is about love in its most mundane forms -- passing the morning paper back and forth over tea, squabbling, driving, chatting. It’s a minor w.

for this year's Mosaic Music Fest i went for Sondre Lerche and the Faces Down..and it was FANTASTIC. far far cry frm Yo La Tengo last yr. he managed to get our usually stuffy audience up on our feet and dancing away to Phantom Punch.. and singing along to Sleep on Needles (which was totally awesome even though i was surrounded by older folks who clearly didnt know the lyrics to his songs..) and...

Wow! I guess my two toddlers have had me living in a cave for a few years. I can't believe Sondre has been off the map for me. Freaking outstanding music and a unique style. This one, "Sleep on Needles" is so much like classic T.Rex. What a great song.

After a long dry spell, I've started attending live shows again. Not sure why I fell out of the habit of going ... could be any of laziness, cold Canadian winters, moving to Toronto and not being sure what the music scene was like ... I think it's mostly laziness and complacency though. Thankfully I've rediscovered the magic of the live show and have been to 3 gigs recently with a couple more...

Photographer: Per Heimlywell, it was back to fillmore, weekend business as usual. sitting upstairs during the opening bands, hearing a man who dreams of being tom waits, sipping and gritting my teeth through red bull and vodka...the week's sleep was so inconsistent, what with 65 reports on how 14 year olds are handling creative short stories, coping with realities of apartheid after reading Kaf...

New video from Sondre Lerche for "Heartbeat Radio" of the album, out now, of the same name. Video was shot on Coney Island. It's a nice little tune that mixes acoustic, electric, and strings nicely. Saw it at Stereogum.Pigeons and Planes

I just got back from Italia. I love to travel. I've spent the last few years moving and traveling around. I believe we learn me about ourselves, the world we live in and life in general when we travel abroad. The thing I remember most about my travels is the music that connects the places that I've been.In Italia, we took lots of cabs, trains, plans and boats and since I get serious bouts of mo...

"So it seems the cat's out of the bag: it is my birthday!" It took two songs, before Sondre Lerche acknowledged some of the cries that had greeted the start of his set last Saturday night. The now 27 year old, Norwegian-born singer-songwriter celebrated his birthday by opening his current US tour before what appeared to [...]
