Putting artists and the art first, as it should be – Brooklyn creative Aaron Lerer is a musician and songwriter, and co-founder of the independent production label 1526 Records. Aaron’s single Everyday is delightfully organic, eclectic, and colourful, presenting an intimate fire-side vibe of subtle folk-pop qualities, and something like lo-fi, chill or study music underneath.
Everyday introduces a thoughtful vocal and lyrical backbone, and leads with a humility and warmth that’s naturally engaging, immersive, and calming. Nothing flashy or fiercely attention grabbing, just a lush and intimate sound, with a clear strength of songwriting and musical awareness at the forefront.
Everyday pairs acoustic guitar and nearly-whispered, slightly RnB-like soulful vocals, with fluid melodies guiding us through a poetic story of longing and separation. The verses lead perfectly towards the shorter and brighter hook – a snappy earworm of a moment, elevating the folk-pop aspect of the song, before we return to those meandering acoustic verses.
Everything is subtle but effective – the production and vocal shifts, the central contrast from one section to the next. It’s modesty and artistry intertwined, and it speaks volumes on behalf of the intentions and values of Aaron Lerer and 1526 Records.
