JASMYN is the new solo project created by Jasmyn Burke, former singer-songwriter, and frontwoman of the critically acclaimed Toronto band Weaves.
It’s a big, bright alt-pop anthem that finds her rich, breathy vocals backed by a gliding synth and searing guitar line. Let me catch up again / Let me get up again / And find the light” she repeats on the chorus – a fighting comeback if ever there was one.
“This song was loosely written during the Fall of 2020,” Burke explains. “The world was feeling pretty heavy, and I felt myself wanting to write music that created a mood of happiness and space to grow. It feels like we’re living in this sort of in-between space, where life is altering. I wanted to explore finding comfort and hopefulness through uncomfortable change. I feel like I have grown and changed as a person over the last few years and wanted to write songs that created a sense of confidence and well-being.”
