Georgia Weber and the Sleeved Hearts gives us a glimpse of her upcoming EP “Big in Japan,” showcasing her adulation for Japanese philosophy with the first single, “Kintsugi.”
From the moment you press play, you’re transported to the land of the rising sun with the shimmering guitar overlays and soft, dulcet vocals enveloping you in a warm embrace, backed by Camille Harris’s vocals. Georgia Weber’s voice, sweetly vulnerable yet incredibly expressive, guides us through this love song with grace and poise.
At the heart of “Kintsugi” lies a profound connection to the aesthetics of Japan, which Georgia Weber openly cherishes. The “Kintsugi” theme of filling the cracks of broken pottery with shimmering lacquer beautifully parallels the complexities of love and broken hearts, where scars and vulnerabilities become part of a relationship and the individual’s narrative.
Recorded at the Wildwood Recording Studio in Brooklyn, NY, “Kintsugi” was further engineered and produced by Sonny Ratcliff and mastered by Matthew Agoglia. The song combines jazz, indie rock, and pop elements, creating a timeless and contemporary sound. Every detail has been meticulously crafted, from the airy guitar melodies to the smooth, soothing vocals that echo the grace of wisdom built by broken hearts.
“Kintsugi” is a work of art that encourages us to embrace the imperfections in our lives and relationships. Georgia Weber and the Sleeved Hearts have delivered a soulful, heartfelt masterpiece as timeless as the art form it takes inspiration from.
