“Six Ways To Sunday” is an upbeat exploration of a life lived through music, acknowledging a journey filled with unique successes while maintaining an unwavering eye toward the future. The song’s infectious energy is matched by its lyrical candor, featuring standout lines such as: “I’m six ways to Sunday / Yeah I’m only okay / I’m done trying everything / And banking on what tomorrow will bring”. The single creates an immediate sense of camaraderie, inviting listeners into a sonic space where perseverance is celebrated with a driving beat and a hopeful outlook.
Based in Toronto, Lewitt identifies first and foremost as a songwriter, a passion that has fueled a staggering output of 15 albums since he began officially releasing music in 2016. His creative versatility has led him to the stages of iconic venues such as Roy Thomson Hall and the Horseshoe Tavern, as well as into the world of film and television sync. In the last two years alone, his work has been featured in a diverse array of programming, including The Young & The Restless, ESPN Portraits, and 7 Little Johnstons, proving his ability to craft melodies that resonate across medium and genre.
The production of the new single and the forthcoming album represents a return to foundational artistry. Eschewing virtual instruments, Lewitt played every note and sang every harmony himself, creating a rich, hand-crafted sound that feels both nostalgic and refreshingly modern. This “all-in” approach extends to his work as a producer for other artists, including his recent collaboration on the Yacht Rock project Rum & Jasmine and producing debut releases for rising talents Lexi Cosentino and Jonathan Sanson.
Beyond the studio, Lewitt is deeply committed to the health of the Canadian music ecosystem. As a dedicated philanthropist, he actively supports initiatives such as MusiCounts, The Doane School of Music, and the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame, ensuring that the next generation of storytellers has the tools to thrive. This spirit of community and mentorship informs his own music, which he views as a necessary respite and a source of genuine fun in a complex world.
With “Six Ways To Sunday,” Lewitt cements his status as one of Canada’s most prolific and reliable musical voices. The single is a testament to the power of a great hook and the enduring relevance of the classic singer-songwriter tradition. Fans can pre-save the track and prepare for the full album release this April, as Lewitt continues to prove that his best stories are still being told.
