New Music Review - ‘Bittersweet’ by Jack Roberston
Bittersweet is the perfect name for the latest release from talented emerging artist, Jack Roberston. Released on the 18th January 2024, it has had an array of musicians writing and recording the track alongside Jack himself including Carlos Martin, Angus Hampton-Carr and Te Kaua Pene from Park Rd. Cover art created by Kael Preston.
Emerging artist, Jack Robertson, has dived headfirst into 2024 with a splash, allowing his solidified, youthful voice to be heard widely throughout New Zealand and beyond with his indie-pop-rock new release, Bittersweet, which strips everything you thought you knew about music way back to the roots and brings you to the heart of it all.
The seducingly calming fulfillment of Bittersweet has the right temperature of what I think to be a perfect new release this month as it is honest from the get-go and comprises of such compassion that you may be knocked right off your feet.
With lines such as “precious memories of the love we’re working on” depicting this literal Bittersweet love story that grapples with many levels of emotion, Jack showcases how classy he is with allowing the words that he wants to be taken in by listeners.
Bittersweet may surprise you as it comes across as being so professionally thought out that you’d think Jack has been on the music scene for multiple years, it is that enchanting.
Whether you are currently experiencing heartbreak or going through the motions of a situationship, Bittersweet has a blend of the perfect taste for all of the ships that you could ever think of.
