Alek Barkats is a Philadelphia-based musician who released his new album, Here we are in the garden, on Friday.
One of the standouts of the record is its lead single and opening track, “Jewels”, which has a warm classic songwriting approach that just sounds like a genuine great summer day spent with good company with the sun shining overhead.
Speaking on the song, Barkats adds:
It’s about finding comfort in routine. Especially when the world is still crumbling. You have to go through so much trial and error to know how to build joy for yourself.”
