Joviale has dropped their new single/video, “Moonshine,” the track is the UK artist’s first single since 2022 and debut for Ghostly International. Co-produced by Joviale with John Carrol Kirby, Jkarri, and Kwaku Konadu, and built to rhythmic bliss with James Mollison of Ezra Collective on saxophone, the strikingly sweet “Moonshine” previews an electric, soulful, and jazzy new direction for Joviale. “I’m alive, I’m awake and I know what I want. A drop of moonshine was all it took,” states the artist.

“Moonshine” came together over several jams as Joviale was challenged to channel the classic Prince muse a la Sheila E., Vanity, and Chaka Khan, a notion in contrast to their self-described “giving art teacher” disposition. Joviale surfaced several lines on the spot (like “I’m easy breezy / Sweeter than a kiwi”) while eating an actual kiwi. The song’s accompanying video was directed by Aqsa Qureshi.
