Sondre Lerche's upcoming album Acrobats is set to be released soon. The Norwegian singer-songwriter has already shared previews of "Little Kids" and "Follow The River." Now, a new track titled "Love Is All" has been released. Lerche explains that "Love Is All" served as the emotional core of the album from the start. He notes that the song's balance of resignation and hope was a key factor in its creation.
Lerche believes his subconscious was influenced by the poetic and economical style of The Blue Nile. Minimalism and space were also key elements in the song's development. The recording process was influenced by Ryuichi Sakamoto. Lerche stayed out late the night before recording vocals, aiming to convey a sense of struggle and intensity.
The song features Solveig Wang on clarinet, whose melodies complement Lerche's soft voice beautifully.
