Correspondence was a project that took place over the year of 2018 between artists Jens Lekman and Annika Norlin. Each month a song was posted on this website as a letter to the other. In the end it became an epistolary novel in the form of twelve folksongs, strings were added to half of the songs and the final result can be enjoyed HERE!

For the sake of preserving the project in it's original form you can still listen to the unmastered raw songs without strings below as they were originally posted on this website as well as read the lyrics to each song. Below you will also find an introduction and a track by track commentary.

Thank you for listening.
