Hello JSB fans,

These are truly unprecedented times. I am very confused about exactly what is happening to our society in the face of this global pandemic. There is so much information out there (real, fake, and otherwise) and attempting to process that information in the face of the collapse of the airline industry in which I am dutifully employed has made the last month stressful to say the least.

Ironically, we released a new song this month of which I am very proud of, but have not really had the bandwidth to promote properly. The irony, is that I wrote this song long ago about repeated nightmares I was having at the time. The same type of nightmare I feel we are living through now, when we are awake. The primary line reads, “Do you think, its all a bad dream, or do you think its real, I’m asking.” At the time I was struggling with the conscious difference between our dream state and the state we are in when we are walking around “in the real world”. I am more convinced than ever that the two are more closely married than anyone thinks. I do not believe our dreams are prophetic, but simply manifestations of our consciousness free from its own blinding ego. Or maybe thats all non-sense, who knows. Hence the dilemma of the song I guess.

Joke is another genre departure for this band. Latin beats give way to ethereal electronica choruses and a drive up the middle rock bridge. This song was fully written, recorded, and produced, by Jason Sees Band, in our own studio. It pushed me to new limits in my production skills as we fully embrace the term indie like few bands are capable of. As always I am grateful for Shaun and Dave, who have stuck by my side through musical thick and thin.

I will include links below to listen for free. It is a creation I am very proud of and one that I hope you would like to check out.

Take care and be cognizant of what your ego-less self is trying to tell you, it might just make the difference in the end.

Jason
