There’s no smoke and mirrors when it comes to Jesse Northey’s music; the goal is to explode the artifice of masculinity, norms, and ambition. Today, he shares his first single of 2022, “Soul Seeker”. Produced by Thomas D’Arcy (The Sheepdogs, NOBRO, Yukon Blonde) at Taurus Studios, D’Arcy infuses Northey’s sensitive indie rock with vintage analog warmth and alt-rock swagger.
“Soul Seeker” is a track about “living for the chase in the name of trying to experience more, and actually missing the point because you couldn't see the big picture or were having too much fun to notice any sort of damage you were causing,” says Northey. “It's a shift towards more awareness, less destruction, and the root causes of joy.”
The single arrives with a video from director J.S. de Courcy who says about the visual, "nobody steals boats anymore, especially ones without motors. This is maritime counterpoint; three movements of passion with a finale of love."
