JÁNA Releases Debut EP “Flowerworks”: Streaming
Stockholm based singer-songwriter JÁNA released her debut EP “Flowerworks” on July 3, 2020.
On the same day, she dropped a new music video for “Buds” from the EP.
Johanna Andrén (her real name) said of the song,"Buds is a song about growth, but more specifically about growing apart from someone you love. Feeling a friction within a relationship without being able to change it. Perhaps at first the differences were what made the relationship stronger, but once the thing holding the relationship together is no longer there, those differences don't match anymore."- rqz0v8_E7pQ
The EP contains 5-track, featuring Jazz-inflected R&B sound. She worked with Swedish electronic music band Little Dragon on the EP.
“My goal is to create a world for each song to live in. I pay a lot of attention to lyrics. I want them to hit hard, but still be art. I want the songs to have a variety of potential interpretations depending on which way the listener hears it," she explains. “One day, I had my girlfriend, my apartment, a publishing deal and then the next, everything went away. I realised I can't control anything; that it's always in motion. I decided to pursue a more independent approach to my music because I wanted to at least be in control of my work. There were a lot of major changes but ones that needed to happen. I would always want my music to be personal, to be an outlet of emotions somehow and that is ultimately what 'Flowerworks' became.”- source : The Line Of Best Fit
