Love Me Twice

Singer-songwriter Carr Mercer from Scotland has an unusual background: he’s been performing on the street since he was ten, and was selling out live shows even before releasing his music on streaming platforms.

The track he sings here vividly explores themes like the repetition of affection and a hunger for certainty.

This captivating work is a single released in March 2026.

Highly recommended for nights when you’re feeling lonely and want to sink into a warm, comforting voice.
