Watch: Dinner “Girl”

12 Apr 2013 — Henning Lahmann

Like the lost son of Ariel Pink and, say, Anne Grete, Danish artist Anders Rhedin, who's at the heart of new project Dinner, sounds exactly like the hyprid between Southern California's weirdo underground pop scene and the bright and shiny tones of Scandinavian glory that you've always been waiting for. Appropriately enough, the video for the title track of his debut EP Girl, premiered below, was recently shot in LA. And even more aptly, the visuals are just as filthy and dusty as the song, which sports Rhedin's very recognizable dark and rusty crooning over sprinkling, glittery guitar phrases that thankfully straighten out that besides all obvious talent and craft, we're dealing with someone who doesn't aim at being taken all too seriously.

The Girl EP is out April 26 on Looking Forward.

Together with our friends at Nordic By Nature, we present Dinner's EP release show at Our/Berlin Vodka on April 26. And yes, that apparently also means free vodka. RSVP here.
