Israeli musician Assaf Avidan has released "Summer Rain," the first single from his new project, "Lost Ballads," set to debut on November 13. The project features eight songs Avidan wrote over the past decade but never included in previous albums. "Summer Rain" itself was written about ten years ago and explores a relationship marked by past wounds, where the individuals struggle to separate despite the pain.
Avidan re-recorded the song in his Israeli studios over three days. The musical arrangement, handled by Tom Cohen, emphasizes Avidan's voice and lyrics with a minimalist production. The "Lost Ballads" project will be released as two separate EPs, each containing four songs. Unlike a cohesive album, this project compiles material from different stages of Avidan's career, now presented with new arrangements and recordings. The songs were recorded in Israel shortly after Avidan finished his album "Unfurl."
