Mr. Jens Lekman passed up Milwaukee on his last tour, which brought him to Chicago's Logan Square Auditorium in November 2007. This time, however, the Swedish musician sets a night aside for The Pabst Theater.

According to a post on Pitchfork Media, Lekman's "Night Falls Over Kortedala" tour brings him to Milwaukee on Saturday, March 29 and to Madison's Music Hall on Sunday, March 30.

Stay tuned for ticket information as it surfaces.

OnMilwaukee.com staff writer Julie Lawrence grew up in Wauwatosa and has lived her whole life in the Milwaukee area.

As any “word nerd” can attest, you never know when inspiration will strike, so from a very early age Julie has rarely been seen sans pen and little notebook. At the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee it seemed only natural that she major in journalism. When OnMilwaukee.com offered her an avenue to combine her writing and the city she knows and loves in late 2004, she knew it was meant to be. Around the office, she answers to a plethora of nicknames, including “Lar,” (short for “Larry,” which is short for “Lawrence”) as well as the mysteriously-sourced “Bill Murray.”
