“Workin’ On It” By Brijean

Brijean, includes percussionist/singer-songwriter Brijean Murphy and multi-instrumentalist/producer Doug Stuart have announced their new album Macro, will arrive on July 12th via Ghostly International, ahead of it’s release, the duo have shared lead single/visualizer “Workin’ On It.” The track initially started as a living room jam then “Doug played the two-layered basslines over a loop of bongos, congas and a drum machine and the rest felt like it happened in a dream,” explains Murphy. While working late into the night and struggling with insomnia, she improvised her sleep-deprived lines, riffing on self-improvement and modern times, half-serious at first but something clicked in those small hours. Later she asked fans to send voice memos in exchange for art, and some of those got peppered into the soundbed. “That was a treat… Just getting to go through and hear all of these voices from around the world, an intimate and charming experience.” The album’s visuals, directed by Bijan Berahimi (FISK), sees Brijean and Doug present themselves as a variety of characters, reflecting on the multi-faceted nature of their style, interests and sound.
