about

Meet JERKA, the latest addition to the Rama Lama Records label family.

JERKA is a new solo project of Malmö DIY musician Jesper Pettersson, mostly known as the brain behind and front figure in indie punk band Gula Blend - the band that released their debut LP in 2020 and got nominated as newcomer of the year at the latest Swedish Indie Awards. On his solo project, the nerve and genuine feeling from Gula Blend remains but is put in a more intimate setting without sparing any energy.

Swedish debut single 'Natten' - a monotone but playful lo-fi track with Pettersson's signature simple but compelling storytelling lyrics in the center of drum machines and synths that together create a hypnotizing soundscape - was released in November and is now followed by 'Living on my own', the first English track from the project.

'Living on my own' feels like a 2-minute rush when you’re late for the bus but just make it in time. According to Jesper, it's a song about being tired of yourself but at the same time not having the energy to hang out with anyone else.

'Living on my own' is out now on all digital platforms via Rama Lama Records (Steve Buscemi’s Dreamy Eyes, Melby, Wy, Chez Ali, Gula Blend, Kluster B, Kindsight, etc.)
