“This song is about coming to the realisation as a musician, that you may never be recognised the way you want, but you feel you have no choice but to continue and go forward. This can be painful but at the same time the beauty of the music and creative process will get you through those hard times“
Joggebukse
THE RELEASE
Joggebukse’s latest release with tao “May You Rain” tastefully merges neo-soul with the sophistication of jazz music, resulting in a sound that feels both refreshing and timeless.
The trio has emerged as a standout force in Norway. They’ve become known for their high-level musicianship, breathtaking live shows, and crafting a style that blends a variety of soulful genres.
Their new release with California native tao highlights this as her smooth vocals soar over their vibrant mix of glossy keys, groovy drums, and a deeply layered organ. Lyrically, “May You Rain” touches on a theme that many artists will relate to – the ache of striving for recognition that may never come.
