Lykke Li has been on our radar a long time, and we've been vocal in our appreciation of her talents. We're hoping Lykke Li's appearance at Lollapalooza helps her break through to a much larger audience this year so more folks can appreciate her minimal electronic pop. It's the sort of thing that whispers in your ear oh so subtly and hypnotizes you with its charms so deeply you don't even notice you're already in its throes as you dance with abandon.

If you're not going to Lollapalooza, or if your schedule precludes you from catching her set in Grant Park, we highly recommend seeing her show at Bottom Lounge with Miike Snow and Esser Friday night. In fact, even if you do catch her at Lolla we'd still recommend catching her in a smaller venue since it might be the last chance you have to witness her in a relatively intimate setting.

We got a a limited edition, hand numbered and autographed poster, and a pair of tickets to the Bottom Lounge show to give away to one lucky Chicagoist reader. Enter for your chance to win after the jump.

Lykke Li plays Friday, August 7 at Bottom Lounge, 1375 W Lake, 9 p.m., $20, 18+

Li also plays Saturday, August 8 on the Citi Stage at Lollapalooza at 7:30 p.m.
