Los Angeles singer-songwriter Jane. announces 'Celeste' EP, unveils new single "Sun In My Eyes"
Los Angeles singer-songwriter Paraj Jain b.k.a. Jane. has announced their new Celeste EP.
The five-song release is slated to arrive on March 31 via Good News Only. The EP was produced by Jane. with assistance from Peter Labberton (St. Vincent, Sleater-Kinney, Parquet Courts, Weyes Blood), and Mike Derenzo.
The first single from the EP titled "Sun In My Eyes,” which was released today, can be heard below. Jain. said this about the personal track:
"I was involved in a fatal motor vehicle accident that showed me the preciousness of life in one quick moment. A moment that has never left me. Something I carry with me everyday of my life. It's insane that the sun, which is one of the most cherished and beautiful things in my life, was also the main catalyst to this accident, one of my most feared, and terrifying memories of my life. This song almost feels like a confession. Something so delicate and private, something that I am so fearful of being judged by. But it feels so important to share. It's a story that is as a part of me as my cultural identity. It's something I can’t escape."
"Sun In My Eyes" is out on digital services right now. Pre-orders for Celeste can be made here. Celeste follows Jane.’s 2021 debut album What A Wonderful Time To Be Barely Alive.
Jane. will end 2022 with a headlining show at Los Angeles’ Resident on December 8. In January, the artist will be supporting Suki Waterhouse on tour. Tour dates can be seen below. Tickets for their Resident performances are on sale here. Tickets for their gigs alongside Waterhouse are on sale here.
