JESSIA Drops Summer Self Love Anthem, ‘Therapy & Yoga’
Canadian pop sensation JESSIA returns with the release of her new single Therapy & Yoga, the perfect summer feel-good anthem. Therapy & Yoga is a fearless introduction to JESSIA’s latest era, one marked by unapologetic self love and independence. For anyone that needs a reminder that the best revenge is simply choosing yourself, Therapy & Yoga’s upbeat sound will have the track on repeat in everyone’s summer playlist. JESSIA sat down to talk more about the release of the single, and what fans can expect in the future from the breakout pop star.
Is there anything you're really looking forward to about releasing this specific single?
I'm excited to have a summer bop out during the peak of summer! "Therapy & Yoga" is a HOT GIRL ANTHEM. Every time I listen to it, I want to call up my girls, start pouring the aperol spritz, and get ready to yap! I hope this song inspires girls to leave behind dumb boys and just focus on loving themselves.
How does this single fit into the next chapter for your music?
I'm having a lot more fun experimenting with production and sonics. I feel like I'm stepping into a more carefree era. It's really freeing and hopefully comes across in my music.
What is the writing process like for these songs where you deal with some past negative emotions on upbeat tracks? How do you balance those emotions?
There are still going to be a few heartbreak tracks, for sure. I'm always drawn to writing about heartbreak because it's when I feel the most raw. That said, I'm finding ways to still write music that feels raw and emotional when I am happy and my life isn't in shambles. It's hard, haha!
As the perfect glow up song, are there any techniques you would recommend on entering your own glow-up era and embracing self love?
My number one recommendation would be NO CONTACT! That person needs to disappear from your life for a while so you can focus wholeheartedly on yourself. Talk to your friends, buy yourself the bag you're always wanted, get into exercising, and just take time to be with yourself. All of that will help you figure out what you do want in your next relationship.
For first time listeners, what three songs would you want them to hear and why?
1. "I'm not Pretty." That song is where it all began. It has such an important message as well. I'm so thankful for that song.
2. "Care About Me." I'm really proud of this one. I think it's just a great song. It's the perfect track for anyone who has ever felt unseen or taken for granted.
3. "Therapy & Yoga." It's such a feel-good confidence booster. In this climate we're living in, I think we all need a reminder to love ourselves and enjoy life more.
