Soon
Hiiii friends ! It's been a minute <3
I wanted to check in with a lil ramble to update you on where I've been, an exciting new project coming and how buzzed I am to share some new music with you SOON
I want to start by saying such a huge thank you for the support you showed (and continue to show!) to the four singles I released to kick off my relaunch as Joely June. Those songs are so special to me and it makes me feel so full and happy to see people still enjoying them, discovering them, connecting with them.
After the release of Not a Crier last March, I spent some time co-writing, sometimes travelling to another city to meet someone for the first time and write a song. This was a little different for me, challenging in lots of ways but mostly just sooo much fun. I'm in awe of the talented songwriters and producers out there and it's safe to say friendships were made. It felt right to spend some time creating without really considering Joely June, experimenting with other artist's processes and just letting the sessions sway whatever way felt exciting. I expected nothing and questioned everything - it felt terrifyingly healthy. At some point I would love to share some of the music that was created during this time.
While my focus has been away from JJ, I've been having sponging time. I've sponged up a lot of things over the past year that, when the time was right, eventually became this next project. And it is maybe (definitely) my favourite so far...I know every songwriter ever says that about new stuff, but I really love these songs. It feels like everything so far has been a stepping stone to help figure out what kind of music I really want to make, and I feel like I've landed somewhere I feel completely myself. Wishy! Washy! and I'll probably be repeating myself in a years time...but I feel good.
Can't say toooo much yet and I know I keep saying "soon" but really, soon these songs will be yours too and that's something I can't wait to talk to you about.
Til then,
luv JJ xxxx
