{"product_id":"julia-jacklin-the-gem","title":"Julia Jacklin - The Gem","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Gem is Julia Jacklin's fourth album and her first for 4AD, a 2026 record made close to home in Melbourne with a quiet confidence that rewards close listening.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Australian singer-songwriter co-produced it with Robert Muinos, recording in a space above a Collingwood bar called The Gem, which lent the album its name. It's her first set of new original songs since Pre Pleasure in 2022, the record that confirmed her as one of indie rock's most perceptive writers about love, family and the small dramas of everyday life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Get Away From Me (I Think I'll Love You Soon),\" the first single, captures her gift for the bittersweet in its title alone, the push and pull between attraction and self-protection that runs through so much of her work. \"Brand New\" opens the album, and \"God Sometimes\" carries the frank, plain-spoken honesty that has always been her calling card.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcross ten songs, Jacklin's voice stays front and center, unshowy and direct, while the arrangements leave room for small details to land. The closing \"I Wish\" features The Maes, adding fresh voices to the album's final moments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who has followed her since Don't Let the Kids Win, The Gem feels like the work of an artist settling comfortably into her own skin.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57439074124081,"sku":"191400094215","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Julia_Jacklin-The_Gem.jpg?v=1794152144","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/julia-jacklin-the-gem","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
