Premiered on Ground Sound, Jake Craney says of JOSEPHINE‘s new single: “The song is undeniably catchy and is the perfect way to start off your weekend!”

JOSEPHINE says of the single’s storyline: “I wrote ‘Friends’ about my best friend, a guy, who I was in love with. Most of my songs come from an autobiographical place and imagination mixed with melodramatic exaggeration – but this song was the most literal song I’ve written. It really encapsulates this relationship that I just felt so backwards in. You always hear about girls friend-zoning guys but rarely do you hear about it being the other way around..” 

Born and raised in Tucson, Arizona to Persian parents, 22-year-old singer/songwriter, JOSEPHINE’s musical influence came from both Middle Eastern music and hip-hop alike. The melting pot of sounds served as the basis for her unique sound and sing-rap cadence much like SZA and Halsey.

Last year, JOSEPHINE was put on the map after the drop of her self-released debut visual album Love Trap: The Story (August 2017), which has garnered over 150,000 streams to date. JOSEPHINE has also performed along the west coast and southwest at The Peppermint Club, Avalon Hollywood, The Mint, Silverlake Lounge, Club Congress (Arizona), and the Mehregan Festival.

JOSEPHINE will be releasing her subsequent visual EP—reminiscent of 90s pop culture—Chasing High in Summer 2018. Two singles symbolizing the innocent voice of middle school relationships will be released prior to the EP—which will continue the narrative as the album reflects relationships in high-school and as a young adult. Stay tuned for further tour and EP announcements to come.

JOSEPHINE in the press… 

“If you like lots of costume changes and moody bedroom pop then boy do we have the music video for you! Taking place in a single bedroom / bathroom, Josephine’s music video for “High Hopes” is both dreamy, creepy and kind of sexy in equal measures. If you’re looking for some music to play in the dark, Josephine has your back.”  – BRIGHTEST YOUNG THINGS (7/21/2017

“A woman who is not afraid of her roots, embraces her past, and builds the brightest future is taking the music industry by storm. Josephine, an up and coming pop singer, of Persian descent, is rising above all to showcase her talent to the world.”  – BOMBSHELL BY BLEU (July 2017

“With 10,000 plays in two days and an impressive spot on 4 of Spotify’s New Music Friday playlists, Josephine is already defining her place as a new artist.”  – THE DAILY LISTENING (7/11/2017
