Today, Jordan Klassen is sharing another new single. “Surprised / Not Surprised” was written “at a time when I had a lot of noise running through my head,” says Klassen. “It's so easy to just assume that the narratives we're telling ourselves about ourselves are true and that can be pretty debilitating. The song is about those moments when you're quiet and present and suddenly you realize that the story you've been telling is false, and there's this tremendous relief that maybe you'll be ok, that everything will be ok.”

This Fall, Klassen will embark on a run of North American tour dates that takes him across the continent. Tour dates begin October 24 in Alberta and run till the end of November when he returns home to BC. Full route listings can be found below.
“Surprised / Not Surprised” and previous single “Virtuous Circle” are the first new music from Jordan Klassen since 2017’s Big Intruder. The stunning video for “Virtuous Circle” was recently nominated for a UKMVA for Best Alternative Video - International. Directed by Farhad Ghaderi and produced by Shelby Manton of Boldly, explores the joys and pains of brotherhood through the volatile relationship between a young boy (Ben Andrusco-Daon) and his self-destructive older brother (Antoine Olivier Pilon) in the pursuit of winning a famous regional long-distance race.
