New Music: Maybe Nowhere

             

The British jazz-rock producer, composer and multi-instrumentalis Emma-Jean Thackray whose new album Weirdo is coming out in April, shares a new single "Maybe Nowhere", in where she explores the grief about the sudden passed away of her partner, the track is undeniably groovy, due to Thackery’s bold vocals layered with thick, complex basslines. She explained: After losing my partner I didn’t want to be here anymore, but hiding these feelings and thinking you’re a burden is what makes them even more dangerous. You need a place to explore these feelings and for me that’s music – my safe space. This song is a diary of when those feelings for me were at their worst, and the cavernous ending is wondering what it sounds like to die. Making this song, this album, is why it’s a wondering and not a reality; it saved my life
