Jessica Mauboy Releases New Song “Automatic”
Australian R&B singer-songwriter Jessica Mauboy released a new song “Automatic” along with a music video.
The song is the follow-up to “Glow”, which was released last December.
It was written by Cosmo Liney, Jessica Mauboy, Patrick Liney and Sophie Curtis. Produced by Cosmo's Midnight.
“‘Automatic’ is about having faith in your own sense of direction and firmly taking the driver’s seat in all aspects of your life,” Jessica Mauboy said of the song. “Believe in your intuition and don’t be afraid to give yourself permission to explore that - the little voice in your head is usually always right. It was a serious blast to hit the studio with George Reid & co-writers Cosmos Midnight and Sophie Curtis to make this song.”- The accompanying music video was directed by W.A.M Bleakley.
She said of the video, “‘Automatic’ is such a fun and energetic song, I knew I wanted to go big with this video and to allow fans to see me in a way they had never seen me before. Growing up in the open bush lands of Darwin, driving Dad's ute and riding quad bikes with my friends and family, I couldn’t resist hitting the dirt to bring that boss lady energy to the track.”
She continued, “After hearing [that] Jess rides quad bikes in the Northern Territory, it was an easy choice to centre the clip around quad biking. Although we didn’t shoot in the desert due to logistical reasons, we chose a location with [a] red earth palette to match this.” - source : Apple Music
