Canadian singer-songwriter Leif Vollebekk’s fifth album, Revelation, blends narrative lyrics with cinematic arrangements, shaped by the spiritual themes and dream imagery he explored during the COVID-19 lockdowns. Written over that long stretch, the songs reflect on mortality, the natural world, and the pull of the unseen. Vollebekk recorded at Sunset Sound in Los Angeles and Dreamland in Woodstock, playing most of the instruments himself and bringing in guests for added texture. The arrangements are spacious, with pianos, strings, and gentle layers moving around his warm, unhurried voice. It is an album that unfolds slowly, which feels just right.

What I love about music is its power to transport me. Sometimes it’s unexpected, sometimes it’s exactly where I want to be. A single melody can unlock memories I didn’t realize I still carried, while certain chords or lyrics take me to another time or place. Some songs feel like home, offering shelter, while others deliver me to an unknown place or space, stirring emotions I can’t quite name. In this way, music isn’t just sound—it’s a sonic subway, delivering me to a station of refuge or one I never knew existed.
