The story

Grown over years, completed in twelve months

“Human Grace” brings together new recordings and songs that have stayed with Harket for years. It is built on vocal recordings from the years after “Brother”; the instrumentation and arrangements were created anew between July 2025 and July 2026.

Once again it was produced by Stockholm-based Peter Kvint, who also shaped “Out of My Hands”, “Brother” and a-ha’s “Cast in Steel”. The album was mixed by Jonas Kroon.

And it is a family album: his daughter Tomine sings on “Hold Me”, and his youngest daughter Karmen Poppi A. Harket can be heard on “Falling Down”.
