A chance of rain (2018)

On his new single «I carry a curse» Zurich singer-songwriter Waverer (Lorenzo Contin)
imagines his unlucky love life being controlled by supernatural forces. Wallowing in self-pity,
he begs the universe to absolve him (“I need a miracle soon”) until those mystical “truthsayers”
reply: you messed up, it’s your own fault. A dramatic and catchy indie ballad in classic
Waverer fashion that ironically reflects on fears of rejection and modern dating culture.
Musically, «I carry a curse» recalls the contemporary folk rock sound of Big Thief, Kevin Morby or Julia Jacklin. The unconventional combination of Americana-esque pedal-steel guitars with eerie synths and wind howling creates an equally nostalgic and unsettling vibe that recalls the iconic television show Twin Peaks. Produced by Vojko Huter (claire my flair, Pina Palau),
«I carry a curse» is released as a stand-alone single via Lauter on June 20.
