Despite all the evident horrors in the world, love is still very real — and it’s important to believe in it, or “soon we won’t be here at all,” sings Darrin James on his touching new track “Still Believe in Love”.

This is barren in that sense, though places emphasis on the words, which in times like now cannot be stressed enough.
The track is off the Darrin James Band’s new album Strange Storm, which can be streamed below:
