Drawing us in with a dimensional, funk-laced soundscape, Jason Kerrison opens You Are Love with a raspy vocal as he shares observational prose about his muse. We immediately connect with the introspective yet optimistic nature of what Jason shares, and his poetic prowess.
The opus expands with thought-provoking depth, detailing a multi-faceted perspective on his partner, Adele, before shifting into a universal, cosmic energy for the pre-chorus, filled with a high emotional quotient as Jason sings hook, “You are love, and love is all around…”
We are enthralled. The journey of the song is transcendental. Speaking on the release, Jason confesses, “You Are Love is a tribute to resilience. The song reflects on a deeply personal chapter. Witnessing her face a life-threatening illness with quiet strength, unwavering compassion, and grace. Despite the pain, she continued to care for others, and through it all, her love remained constant. You Are Love is a celebration of courage, healing, and the power of love to endure even the darkest moments.”
Jason adds, “This song is a love letter to courage. I watched the person I love face the unthinkable with grace — and it changed me. You Are Love is me saying thank you.”
We learn that the team behind You Are Love is built on long-time collaboration and trust. Jason Kerrison led songwriting, vocals, and production, and was joined by veteran guitarist and producer, Tim Skedden, whose history with Kerrison stretches back to their OPSHOP days. Acclaimed mixer Clint Murphy added polish and depth, completing the track’s powerful and dynamic sound.
We deeply appreciate the conscious and intentional energy that manifests with the song, which would also be perfect for a range of sync deals with its cinematic allure – a coming of age story, or a romantic film that has a similar narrative to what Jason and Adele experienced, perhaps.
Naturally, we are in awe, and have added You Are Love to our New Music Spotlight playlist, and our TIMELESS playlist, whilst we continue to stream Jason Kerrison‘s wider discography, including his album, Second Hand Planet.
