The Vinyl District’s Radar with Evan Toth
To surrender does not always mean to give up. Sometimes, it takes an incredibly strong person to recognize that the flow of life is trying to tell them something. Often, one’s real power can be found by letting go and allowing the natural direction of things to take their course.
Jann Klose’s new album, titled Surrender (Honey Rose Records), is an exploration of many things, but notably that concept as well. His seventh studio album finds this pop/rock singer-songwriter honing his already sharp songwriting chops. There are some notable guests on this album, as well: singer, Alicia Madison duets on a song she co-wrote with Klose titled, “Love You the Most”, fellow songwriter and friend Alex Forbes also co-writes some songs and you’ll hear some beautiful choral embellishments courtesy of a 15-member choir from PS 171 in New York City.
If you like a pop hook, an earworm that won’t escape your brain no matter how hard you try, you’re in the right place. Join Jann and I as we discuss his newest work, his upcoming world tour, and how it doesn’t always make sense to fight against the forces around you, about how sometimes real strength can be built from learning how to surrender.
