Over the past decade, Montreal-based JoJo Worthington has emerged as a distinctive presence in creative Canadian music, pairing deftly-penned songs with spectacular sonic landscapes. Ceaselessly engaging, deeply affecting, and always forging deeper into the unknown, Worthington is one of the most forward-thinking musicians of her generation.
Watch the visuals for her new single, “The Divide,” now:
The space between opposite opinions can seem so huge. I think we’ve really thrown it out of proportion. We should still be able to converse, respect and ultimately agree to disagree when it comes to most topics. It just felt like the news and social media just wanted to continue driving this huge divide between political identities.
You know in movies when there’s an earthquake and the earth splits open and it separates the protagonist and the love interest and then sometimes you see people fall in the gap? It’s kinda about the people in the gap and trying to find a home there. – JoJo Worthington
