JANE INC CONTORTIONISTS

Toronto’s Jane Inc. has dropped her latest single in the form of ‘Contortionists’. It’s a playful track led by space-age synth sounds and her isolated voice. Her ability to craft ethereal soundscapes is impressive, with a traditional beat not kicking in until at least halfway through the track. “At first I thought I was making a record about time," Carlyn Bezic explains. “But I was actually making a record about how, in moments of intense anxiety, you're living in the past, present and future at the same time. A million moments existing at once, real and imagined." ‘Contortionists’ has been delivered alongside the announcement that her forthcoming second album Faster Than I Can Take will be released on April 22nd, 2022. -Dan Peeke
