Zoe Reynolds AKA: Kississippi has dropped her new EP, damned if i do it for you, along with the release, Kississippi has shared new single “Jesus Freak.” The artist will conclude her West Coast tour with an official EP release show live in Los Angeles at Permanent Records Roadhouse with support from indie rock musician talker.

“Jesus Freak” is “a journey of introspection, peeling back all of your layers and searching for the love that you’ve always On the personal experiences that led to the creation of the track, and ultimately, self-acceptance, Kississippi shares, “I struggled to accept my solitude, I couldn’t help but feel this constant pining for more. I found myself developing feelings for a friend, too afraid to risk what we already had by confessing them. My desires seemed completely unattainable, and I felt like I was unworthy of the love I taught myself to fear. So, I kept this fantasy of us alive only in my dreams as I longed to be in their place, idolizing them and wishing for a switch in roles.”

damned if i do it for you is an exploration into the heart. Reuniting with 2021’s Mood Ring producer Andy Park (Future Teens, Death Cab For Cutie), Kississippi found her stride again, only this time, with fresh life experiences to draw from and a newfound sense of self. When she felt stuck while writing, she brought her drafts to Dan Campbell (The Wonder Years, Aaron West and the Roaring Twenties) for workshopping, then brought those drafts to Illuminati Hotties’ own Sarah Tudzin (boygenius, Speedy Ortiz) and Maddie Ross for finishing touches and studio time.
