Swedish indie/rock-duo Little Lies release new single ‘Roadblocks’

The band said about the track “‘Roadblocks’ is about breaking free, going for the life you want and crushing whatever is standing in the way. Musically it’s a fusion of spaced-out rock, inspired by giants like Bowie and Fleetwood Mac mixed with the pulsating disco grooves of pioneers like Giorgio Moroder & Chic. This, together with a spooky Twin Peaks vibe, makes ‘Roadblocks’ a track for the dance floor as well as a night drive through the city.”

Little Lies is a passion project from established musicians and friends Mikael Nordgren and Anna Maria Espinosa. Their music soars freely between a myriad of emotions, heartfelt lyrics and catchy melodic soundscapes. As a band that refuses to be confined by genre, Little Lies not only delve into the realm of pop, rock and indie, but also experiments with electronic sounds and disco.

For over a decade, the pair have forged successful music careers separately across Sweden. Anna Maria Espinosa is one of Sweden’s most established singers, and has in addition to her own solo career, sung with pop royalty such as Neneh Cherry, Grammy Award-winning American soul singer, Billy Paul & Kevin Rowland frontman for the pop band Dexys Midnight Runners among many others. Since she started her career, she has sung with a large section of Sweden’s artist elite both on stage and on tracks.

Stockholm-based Mikael Nordgren, aka Tiger Stripes, has forged a solid international career as a prestigious and sought-after underground producer, remix specialist and DJ. As Tiger Stripes, he has toured the world’s top clubbing destinations such as Berghain, Panorama bar, Ministry of Sound, Secret Project Festival and Subtronic, playing his futuristic techno to sell-out crowds from Berlin to Miami and back again.

Together, as Little Lies, this duo has created something unique by combining a wealth of experience and sharp, innovative production, alongside one of Sweden’s most established voices. Little Lies are ready to break new ground by sharing their music not only with their Swedish contemporaries and fans, but across the globe.
