Lykke Li shares exclusive details of THE EYEYE TOUR, a limited run of performances in support of the Swedish star's critically-acclaimed audiovisual album EYEYE.
THE EYEYE TOUR is an emotional ride in two acts: the live debut of the album followed by classics from the High Priestess of Heartbreak’s 2014 masterpiece I Never Learn (longtime collaborator Björn Yttling joins Lykke on tour for the first time). Lykke describes the show as a “theatrical loop,” with mind-altering choreography by the van Opstal siblings and a custom-built fourteen-foot mirror that turns the stage into an infinite visual circle. It’s a continuation of the quest Lykke started with EYEYE, to condense “a lifetime of romantic obsession and female fantasy” into a hypersensory experience. If you get lost, follow the tear tracks, click tracks, headphones, or digital instruments. “Night falls, it rains, I wake up alone,” Lykke sings tenderly, evoking the vulnerability she’s known for.
