Following his 2020 debut album “Breathe Deep”, UK musician Oscar Jerome is back with “Sweet Isolation” which features saxophone from Kaddish Akinnibi. Produced by collaborator Beni Giles, this track is based on some trip-hop, soul and jazz influences and explores the themes of masculinity, melancholy, insecurities and everything in between. The music video directed by Jerome, Alfie Laurence and Mathias Karl Gontard, which was filmed in Iceland introduce his new character Jerry, one of Oscar’s different personas for this upcoming album.
In a press statement he said:
“This track and visual is an exploration into the beauty in melancholy. The first character you encounter is Jerry, back in an easier time. He is happy but somewhat deluded, a warped idolization of what was. The second character, Ice Guycicle, reflects the art that grows out of deep emotion and the pain experienced on the path to transformation. He could be a real person searching for answers on an alien planet or he could be a thought walking through the barren landscape of your mind.”
Oscar Jerome will be live in London on June 14th at the Peckham Audio.
