BANDCRUSH // TOBIAS JESSO JR

What is true love? And how many people actually experienced it? How long does it last? Does it have to be requited? Being in a weird state of recovering from the tragic loss of my first love and best friend and the doubts that come with falling in love again, the lines “Do you need me like I need you?” are echoing in my head.

Vancouver singer-songwriter Tobias Jesso Jr paints a romantic picture of a story of true love with some of the inevitable questions that come along with it; “Do you want me? Do you love me?”. ‘True Love’ is instantly a vigorous listen sending shivers down my spine and giving me goose bumps; I haven’t made such a personal and straight connection to a song in a long time. The solo piano ballad ‘True Love’ recalls ’70s John Lennon vibes with a magical and melancholic intensity. With the help of former Girls member Chet “JR” White Tobias Jesso Jr is no doubt set for great things.
