Jan 20, 2017 By Christopher Roberts Sondre Lerche

Norwegian-born/Brooklyn-based singer/songwriter Sondre Lerche has announced a new album, Pleasure, and shared a video for a new song, “Soft Feelings.” Pleasure is due out April 14. “Soft Feelings” is a fun dance-pop gem. Johannes Greve Muskat directed the video, which was shot on 16mm film and features a cameo by Tom Krell from How to Dress Well. It features Lerche wandering around Los Angeles at night, among other things. Watch it below, followed by the album’s tracklist and cover art and Lerche’s upcoming tour dates. Below also is the video for “I’m Always Watching You,” which Lerche shared in December.

Lerche had this to say about the “Soft Feelings” video in a press release: “I liked the idea of a man on the verge of an identity crisis, alone in LA. A noir-portrait of the man and the city over the course of a lost weekend of isolation and ambivalence. If the previous video, ‘I’m Always Watching You,’ was Rear Window, ‘Soft Feelings’ is Vertigo, with all its clues, symbolism and obsessiveness.”

Pleasure Tracklist:

01. Soft Feelings
02. I’m Always Watching You
03. Serenading In The Trenches
04. I Know Something That’s Gonna Break Your Heart
