Award-winning recording artist Jason Kerrison has joined forces with good friend and fellow singer-songwriter Leigh Franklin, to deliver a dreamy and tender duet with his latest single Someone Should Love You.

A smooth electro-pop tune, Someone Should Love You is a stunning song which gently immerses the listener in a warm bath of beautifully tranquil, sonic sound.

An avid believer in the healing and sacred power of music, Jason advocates listening to songs and music for reconnection to ourselves and others, especially during trying times when we feel disconnected from ourselves and those around us.

It is in the spirit of this new single that Jason has put together his Someone Should Love You Tour, a live performance event with a difference. For this run of shows is designed to be a mini-retreat of sorts, for the mindful lover of music to recharge and uplift the collective spirit with like-minded souls.

For his Someone Should Love You shows, Jason has deep dived into all the old studio hard drives and tapes of OpShop, The Babysitters Circus, Fungi, and his solo work to rebuild the stems from every song he’s ever produced, including Someone Should Love You feat. Leigh Franklin, so that he can lovingly remould and remix them live for a unique performance on this tour.

Says Jason: “Leigh’s performance on Someone Should Love You is beautiful and quite special, so representing the song live in this new format means people can hear the entire studio session including her performance in a live setting.

My acoustic solo shows were always fun, but at these shows I’ll be completely remixing pre-recorded stems of drums, guitars, bass, and other instruments live. I’m basically playing a studio live whilst trying to concentrate on nailing a vocal performance. The sound will be pretty large, it’ll be difference from anything else I’ve ever done, and a lot of fun to perform.

It’ll also be nice to provide a space to pass on my take on sacred sounds and share my personal practices. We can get lost in meditative practice, move to an invigorating sound bath and some good old-fashioned music. I want the vibe to be a bit like a mini-retreat where we can share and help one another, lighten the load with music, make meaningful connections, and take something away that will invite sacred sound to serve us in our lives.

When we feel alone or separated, we might feel like someone should love us, when actually, that person might be ourselves.”

Join Jason for a transformative live experience on his ‘Someone Should Love You’ shows, and look out for a new album later this year.
