Tove Styrke

Over the past decade, Tove Styrke has emerged as one of the pop world’s sharpest and most fascinating observers of the human heart. On her fourth album HARD, the Stockholm-based pop star brings her fiercely intimate lyrics to a truly visionary sound, spiked with elements of everything from left-of-center club music to experimental art-pop to early-’60s girl-group records. At turns explosive, poetic, and sublimely transcendent, the result is Styrke’s most electrifying work to date, fully embodying the ineffable wildness of romantic love itself.
