Lykke Li played a host of new tracks from her upcoming third album I Never Learn for the first night of her tour in Stockholm on Thursday (24 April). Watch below.

The gig, which took place at Berns Salonger in Stockholm, was the first of a tour that will take Lykke Li through mainland Europe, the UK and North America over the coming months.

The singer opened her set with a performance of 'I Never Learn', which is the first track on her upcoming third studio album of the same name.

Speaking of her new album, which is released in the UK on 5 May, the Swedish singer told NME, "It's always about me and the guilt and the shame and the hurt and the pride and the confusion of being a woman. I always feel like I've been slightly misunderstood."

She added: "As a woman you get judged for appearances or things like that I don't really care about. If anything I want to be seen as a singer-songwriter rather than a pop artist. I really feel like I've found my voice."

As well as classics such as 'I Follow Rivers', the singer also played more songs from her latest album, including the beautiful lead single 'No Rest For The Wicked', 'Gunshot' and the first live performance of 'Just Like A Dream'.
