Swedish artist Jari Salmikivi returns with his new single 'Chasing Stars', a heartfelt, guitar-driven track inspired by modern country and classic blues influences. The song blends catchy melodies with thoughtful production, showcasing Jari’s skills as both a songwriter and guitarist.
Written and recorded in Eskilstuna, Sweden, 'Chasing Stars' came to life through a fully remote collaboration with John Thomasson on bass and Caleb Gilbreath on drums, who also handled the mixing and mastering from Nashville. The result is a seamless transatlantic track that reflects the emotional pull of chasing dreams, both musical and personal.
With echoes of Keith Urban and a nod to the energy of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jari fuses country-tinged riffs with dynamic modern production. His vocals carry both warmth and drive, grounding the track in an uplifting sense of movement.
