New York based singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Jordan Lee and his band Mutual Benefit is releasing a new album, “Growing at the Edges”, on October 6th via Transgressive. The album’s third single, “Untying a Knot,” Kai Macknight directed the video.
Lee had this to say about the song in a press release: “‘Untying a Knot’ was partially inspired by a tweet that said something like ‘normalize taking in new information and changing your perspective’ and got me thinking about how difficult it is to clearly look at your own system of beliefs and make substantive changes to cause less harm. While there is currently a lot of focus toward ‘self-growth,’ I wanted the song to instead reflect the process as an ongoing unlearning and untangling of myriad internal knots collected through time.”
Previously Mutual Benefit shared the album’s first two singles: “Little Ways” and “Wasteland Companions” “Growing at the Edges” was co-produced with Gabriel Birnbaum and features violinist Concetta Abatte. Other collaborators include guitarist Jonnie Baker (Florist), vocalist Eva Goodman (Nighttime), bassist Nick Jost (Wilder Maker, Baroness), and drummer Sean Mullins (Wilder Maker, Sam Evian).
