Stockholm native Gustaf Montelius, aka The Fiery Piano, releases his debut album this Wednesday (January 23), via his own Mega Mountain Records. Second Space follows not exactly hot on the heels of 2011’s Sirens EP.

Today’s MPfree is a pure blast of summery Scandi indie-pop, complete with gentle strings, a quivering, transatlantic vocal and a chorus that stealthily attacks your cerebellum, and then sticks around like an adorable, needy puppy.
