Following up on his most recent emotive indie pop single, “Harder To Love,” Toronto-based singer-songwriter Liam Barrack has teamed up with new collaborators Ron Lopata and Andrew Allen to create “Empty Spaces.”
The single is an agile and upbeat piece of indie pop that continually drives forward into the unknown, embracing rock production as Barrack reflects on feeling like you don’t have things in your life figured out enough to relate to the people around you.
“It’s a pretty self-deprecative song about not really seeing the value in many facets of life, and when you really try to consider life, you’re left staring at a bunch of empty space. I think it’s a relationship that a lot of people have with life at some point, and I hope the message resonates with those who listen,” explains Barrack.
“So What” by JEEN is the energetic, pop-leaning emotional centerpiece of her forthcoming LP, Gold Control, out on February 2nd. Can you stay another minute, sit me on the couch, talk to me until I pass out, and if I had it my way, I’d lie there and that’’ where we’d stay, don’t wake me up. Its hazy dream-like longing for connection is relatable as JEEN‘s softer vocals guide us along gently through the moment as if taking us by hand.
Co-produced with her long-time collaborator and Canadian indie musician Ian Blurton who has taken on the role of co-producer for JEEN‘s last five albums, Gold Control is hazy, heady, hedonistic and hopeful.
