Music for the messes
Track list on coming EP ”All we’re waiting for”:
The EP includes a song collaboration together with the talented Josefina Sanner. Johan Nyberg has contributed with bass playing and Conny Lindgren and Andreas Lavotha with violin/viola and cello respectively.
One sided single and story (with a surgical theme) of a person who has put themselves out there – only to be ripped apart by someone who does not care enough – now begging to be left alone to lick their wounds. Somewhat an homage to Depeche Mode, a band who’s magnificent legacy to synth music needs no further comments. The blogg Popmuzik interviewed Jack about the song and the story behind it. Read about it in Swedish here!
Released on the 28th of July – a mix of three very different but also dark songs.
A new EP with three songs will be released in July 2022. All three tracks are built around stories of malfunctional relationships of different kinds.
In the middle of the summer Jack decided to release four new songs. This time through the lenses of other people’s/thing’s eyes – a young LGBT+ person, a handgun, a small servant robot and an outkast.
