Picking up where last year’s soulful Lay Down left off is Where Are You Now, a new release from American Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter JES on Intonenation Records. This latest chapter is part of a collection of new songs that will introduce fans to another side of her artistry.

Where Are You Now draws on the complexity of modern life and relationships and lifestyles, where every statement has become a question, and nothing can be assumed. Driven by an impassioned vocal performance and a haunting backing vocal theme, the song brings a liberating depth and understanding to a situation we all know only too well. From the hypnotic guitars to the intensely layered backgrounds, Where Are You Now connects and delivers a message of dark intentions which ultimately lead to empowerment and redemption.

“I feel like you really get a taste of where my songs come from with this new collection. I have come full circle, back to when I was first inspired to sing and write music” JES said. “The pandemic gave me a chance to stop and feel more deeply than ever. With all the changes we were going through, I wanted to write something uplifting and hopeful about the pressures of modern life in our relationships. I started to reconnect with music and my writing from a more objective place. These songs just started to come to me from a place of new clarity.”

Add Where Are You Now to your morning motivation playlists. Your best life starts here.

JES returns with something entirely new for 2021. “Lay Down,” introduces a fresh sound that puts her award-winning talents front and center, hinting at what might be expected from her long-awaited return to the artist album format.

“Lay Down” is a future-retro ballad built around a stunning JES vocal performance. Punctuated with soulful instrumentation, the sound is brought up to date with a crushing blend of 808’s and trap beats. Recorded in Los Angeles and New York, the song is completed with modern sound design, and emotive synths, keys, and backgrounds. JES is also credited with co-producing the song alongside award-winning songwriter/producer Richard Robson. “Lay Down” is the first release from the three-time Grammy nominee’s anticipated new album expected towards the end of the year, ending a long hiatus from the long-player format. When asked about her new sound, the Billboard #1 singer responded:

“For so many years, I have been searching for an outlet. I needed a way to shed some light on the artist bubbling beneath the songs and style I have been known for. It has always been the point of origin for my songs. But now I have the vehicle to share it directly, to get to the heart of my music. Creating this new music has been so liberating. Being able to re-invent myself with new sounds and the freedom to push my boundaries is electrifying. It’s given me a new level of passion for what I do”.

JES, who has been the name to know for fans of authentic dance music delivers one more reason to keep saying her name. From the first note, the nocturnal theme of “We Belong To The Night” (via esteemed Dutch label Magik Muzik) is unmistakable. JES’ unique tone and delivery dominates the story and leads like a light in the dark from beginning to end. The sound is both deeply electronic and undeniably organic, deconstructing formulas and framing JES’ unique ear for melody against a backdrop of doubtless blissed-out acceptance.
Speaking of the song JES says “Belong has been a part of a deep transitional period for me. Music has always been my heart, so it’s only natural that my re-invention starts there. I sometimes find myself pushing, struggling to make my world be the way I want it to be. This song is all about the surrender and security of finding that safe zone where you can stop for a moment and drift your surroundings. I wanted to share it at the end of the summer, as one thing comes to end there’s a chance for a new beginning, a new me, a new us.”

“We Belong To The Night” is many things at the same time. Smooth and gritty, sweet and salty, even subtle and harsh. So hit the reset button with JES, and let this wall of auditory emotion take you back to where you belong.
