Critical acclaim for Lukas Graham:
“Lukas Graham…writes neatly turned songs that merge the lilt of pop-soul with the quick cadences of hip-hop, and he sings about earnest striving that gets its deserved reward.”
– New York Times
“Laid-back and soulful, songs effortlessly blend elements of hip hop and folk while relaying oftentimes relatable experiences, such as coming from nothing (Mama Said) and regrettable booty calls (Drunk in the Morning). Like 7 Years, Don’t You Worry ‘Bout Me and Funeral grapple with loss, but in a more upbeat fashion.”
– USA Today
“[Lukas Graham brings] ebullience, sincerity, and some very good pop tunes…with a strain of honesty that’s rare in pop.”
– Entertainment Weekly
“Graham’s vocals…somehow deliver both sentimentality and pick-me-up infectiousness. A must-listen.”
– PEOPLE
“This Danish pop outfit’s piano-tinged travelogue “7 Years”… [is] heartfelt pop.”
– Rolling Stone
“Not since Ed Sheeran played SXSW 2012 has anybody hit the festival so fully-formed, so at-the-ready with pop radio hits-in-waiting. Perhaps already a Best New Artist Grammy frontrunner, Lukas Forchhammer has charm to burn.”
– Esquire
“With a bit of soul-pop flavor, a little hip-hop infusion, and beautiful piano accompaniment, it’s apparent that the singer’s got way more to offer than just one chart-topping single.”
– Glamour
“The world has a new pop sensation to look out for in the form of Lukas Graham. The Danish pop singer-songwriter and his band mix hip-hop with pop and fall somewhere in the middle with something soulful and cathartic.”
– POPULAR
“Graham belts out his songs with soul and honesty beyond his years, and it doesn’t hurt that he and his bandmates (who all grew up together) have fantastic onstage chemistry as well.”
– Huffington Post
“The Danish group’s tuneful…album [is] filled with accessible, infectious pop.”
– Boston Globe
“”Lukas Graham” is smartly planned and well-crafted, but its real strength is when Graham lets go and sings from his soulful heart.”
– Newsday
“Blue-eyed soul-pop tunes”
– Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
“The unpretentious nature of the music and Graham’s laid-back attitude give each song an everyman quality, presented by a youthful, wide-eyed raconteur who has just enough life experience to speak to a wide audience.”
– AllMusic
