mmj unveils debut single, “nobody knows"
Purity Ring vocalist Megan James has launched her solo project with her debut single, "nobody knows".
"nobody knows" is James' first solo departure after over a decade as one half of Purity Ring. The single arrives after her recently announced signing to Captured Tracks, and comes alongside a video directed by Jordan Hare.
Discussing the track, James shares: “‘nobody knows’ is close to the sun for me. It resonates a little differently every time I play it. The opening line is: ‘nobody knows a fallen star from wildfire ash raining down on the yard.’ It presents the ways we know so little, but also the things we deny and can see if we choose to, and what we should see and be in order to survive in this place; what we deserve to have and be as individuals and collectively. ‘nobody knows’ is circular, a fractal glimpse of humanity in the span of a song. I hope you feel it."
