Liv is the love child of Lykke Li, Andrew Wyatt, Pontus Winnberg, Björn Yttling and Jeff Bhasker.

LIV is a new group with Lykke Li and Miike Snow’s  Andrew Wyatt sharing vocals. Rounding out the lineup are Li’s longtime collaborator Björn Yttling of the band Peter Bjorn and John , Wyatt’s Miike Snow band mate Pontus Winnberg, and producer Jeff Bhasker. They have more than an album’s worth of songs, but as of early October they weren’t necessarily dead-set on releasing a traditional album of sorts.

Describing their sound, Li told us, “It has this Swedish melancholy in the melodies, but the soundscape was really influenced by Fleetwood Mac’s Tusk or Crosby Stills & Nash.” So far, they’ve shared the songs “Dream Awake” and the song “Wings Of Love”
