Why do we like this?

"I'll Lead You There" is the gorgeous new track from Message To Bears, otherwise known as Jerome Alexander.

Taken from his fourth long player, Carved From Tides, "I'll Lead You There" is a merging of electronic sounds and traditional instruments. Playful acoustic guitar opens the track before vibrant synths and guest singer Will Samson's soothing vocals enter the fray.

To me "I'll Lead You There" is like Bon Iver duetting with Bonobo. While a worthy comparison, it's a slight disservice to Alexander, as his talent needs not be compared to others, it is a sign of how impacting his heartfelt folk infused electronica is. 

You can pre-order Carved From Tides here.
