Stefan J. Selbert recently released a new single, “Sugar Peas,” a light and airy piece of acoustic folk that casts its listeners in the glow of memories and desire. With a light but full sound, Selbert welcomes us into a world where love, distance, and life’s simple pleasures grow together in a sun-soaked garden of vines.
“Sugar Peas” creates an earthy, rural feeling from the first chords. The gentle strumming and ragged delivery sound like a fireside confession, full of heart. Selbert’s sensibilities shine through as he strings poetic metaphors together, using comparisons between love and the little things in life that matter most. His lyrics are brushstrokes illuminating a journey of devotion and discovery.
The secret of “Sugar Peas” is that it simultaneously manages to feel intensely personal and universally relatable. It’s a song for wanderers, long-distance lovers, and people who find beauty in the simplest treasures in life.” The melody glides by with such ease, setting a calming but bittersweet tone that love always comes back home, no matter the distance.
