Jari Antti‘s (singer of Navel, Mr. Ray) debut single ‘Real’ drops today – a lo-fi psychedelic folk journey through identity, love, and the blurry lines in between.
Jari Antti is a Swiss-born, Berlin-based artist crafting raw and intimate psychedelic folk. His music channels broken hearts and vivid inner worlds, moving between narrative songwriting and abstract lyrical fragments. A former member of internationally touring bands like Navel (2003–2015) and Mr. Ray (since 2018), Jari now performs solo or with his live band, Jari & the Mirrors. His live shows are unpolished and honest, always aiming for connection over perfection.
With lines like “What’s real is real, eternally”, Real invites listeners to consider their own journeys of self-awareness and the lasting bonds we share. The music video, featuring Super 8 footage and scientific visuals, adds another layer to the song’s emotional depth, taking viewers on a transformative journey. Real marks the beginning of Jari Antti’s solo career, offering an intimate, introspective sound that’s both timeless and current.
