A new single was released by Jacob Collier, featuring popular guitarist John Mayer of Dead & Company. Lizzy McAlpine was a co-writer on the track as well, contributing her vocals to the song. The track is the first released by Collier this year, it’s also the first single the artist has put out since 2020 when he was teasing his album “Djesse Vol. 3” that ended up being nominated for Album of the Year at the Grammy’s. When speaking about the track Collier had this to say, “Here’s a song I wrote last year, in the depths of lockdown, with my dear friend Lizzy McAlpine. I wanted to explore the deep, vivid emotional world of isolation, loss and memory, blurring the lines between reality and imagination, by piecing together a tapestry of soft orchestral sounds. It speaks to my experience of the world as a hugely beautiful and fragile place, and has helped me process some of the grief I think we’re all feeling for our pasts and futures, in a myriad of different ways.” The song can be found alongside a new lyric video that has been uploaded to Collier’s Youtube.
