Michigan born and bred singer/songwriter Joe Jenneman has just shared his latest musical offering. Entitled "The Villain", the track is shared alongside a cinematic lyric video. "The Villain" is the fourth single shared this year from the artist who first began releasing music in 2019.
With "The Villain", Joe Jenneman writes a highly relatable song about the perils of a breakup, specifically not being able to say goodbye to the exes family and friends who you have become close to during the relationship. He shares, "Then as soon as things go south all of those people instantly vanish from your life, along with the other person in the relationship. What’s worse than knowing you can never be close to those people again, is having no chance to say your farewells." The track also touches upon the fact that you might be painted as the bad person in the situation to those people in their life. Lyrics including, " Well this is it / You get to paint me as the villain after all / I called it quits, you called me names," show this narrative. Musically, "The Villain" entices with lush instrumentation, wistful acoustic guitars and stacked melodies. Sweeping indie folk arrangements complete with banjo and stripped down percussion add to the allure. In the accompanied lyric video, Joe is seen deep in the forest playing his guitar and singing alone showing the deep vulnerability of the song.
Joe Jenneman is a storyteller with a powerful and authentic voice. His new music is deeply personal and introspective. Sonically stripped down to showcase his phenomenal vocal warmth and songwriting prowess. Take a listen to "The Villain" now and enjoy the blissful sounds.
