JØUR
Minneapolis-based alt-pop singer, JØUR, has just released her captivating new single, American Nightmare, the first single off of her upcoming record, Chiaroscuro. Loving this smooth piece of alt-pop with her sweet vocals and electronic minimalism. Stream it below!



Speaking about American Nightmare (produced by Matt Patrick) JØUR said,
I originally wrote this song several years ago about blindly following the ‘American Dream’ of getting a job, moving to the suburbs, getting married, having kids, etc. I felt at the time that my life was flying in the face of conventionality when I quit my 9-5 finance job to pursue art and music and everyone was cautioning me about taking such a huge risk, when for me the biggest nightmare and risk would be to have that version of the American Dream.
The moody single reflects JØUR’s uncertainty and feelings towards America’s stance on social issues and the troubles on Capitol Hill.
