Jack Johnson has revealed the title track from his upcoming album, Meet The Moonlight, out June 24th. The new single arrives alongside a beautiful music video directed by acclaimed filmmaker Morgan Maassen. Watch it now below.
Serving as the album’s centerpiece, “Meet The Moonlight” presents a quietly hypnotic number that producer Blake Mills refers to as “one of the most spiritually interesting things I’ve ever worked on.” Complete with sweet, languid rhythms, dreamy vocals and otherworldly guitar work, the mystical “Meet The Moonlight” is Jack Johnson at his best.
“Whenever I walk outside at night and look up at the stars, it’s always a way to be present instead of worrying about the future or dwelling on the past,” said Johnson on the track.
Mills added, “There’s a chord in the song that wasn’t part of the initial composition; it happened by mistake when we were first playing it. In the end we kept it, because what that chord suggested was all the mystery. To me it represents the whole process of us finding a common ground and working together to keep all those little idiosyncrasies tucked into the mix.”
