2020 was supposed to be Wästberg's big year. Still riding high from the release of his second album as Sir Was -2019's Holding On To A Dream - the Swedish multi-instrumentalist was booked to open for Little Dragon across Europe and the US. When the tour was cancelled due to COVID, he decided to channel all his energies into writing new music instead, but in August of 2020, he received some life-changing news. Tests revealed he carried the gene for a rare, hereditary condition causing multiple strokes. This dichotomy lies at the heart of his beautifully bittersweet third LP. Meditating on love, growth, self-acceptance, forgiveness, mortality and the passing of time, Let The Morning Come, which arrives self-produced by Joel, contains his most candid writing to date. And yet, for all the heartache that comes with being cruelly confronted with one's own mortality, the prevailing impression Wästberg leaves listeners with is one of hope, resulting in a collection that is life-affirming in the very truest sense.1. Hope We'll Make It Through2. I Need A Minute 3. Spend A Lifetime4. Before The Morning Comes5. One Day6. I Don't Think We Should Wait7. Waiting For The Weekend8. You Float9. I Wanna Feel Like That10.
