New York duo Widowspeak are coming back to play at Mejeriet in Lund, Sweden, this Friday and Record Turnover will be playing records before and after the concert. It’s the third time I’ll be seeing them at this venue and I’m pretty sure I’ve played before them at least once before (maybe 2017?).
What’s even better is that Laena Myers, whom we just included in our latest playlist update. She played on the Bent Arcana record and her album LUV that came out in February is so good. Widowspeak haven’t had a record out since 2022, but that’s no reason to give them a miss.
