CD ( VINYL )","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom the very beginning, fans have fallen in love with Jensen McRae for the\r\nsharp, evocative and clear-eyed songwriting. McRae songwriting is vulnerable,\r\nyes, but it's also powerful for not holding back. Now, I Don't Know How But\r\nThey Found Me! Delivers McRae's evolution from a promising young artist to a\r\nbona fide songwriter and star. \"The most profound choices of my life,\" says\r\nMcRae, \"have often felt like things I did before I was ready to do, and I had to\r\ngrow into them.\" I Don't Know How But They Found Me! #is about what follows\r\nwhen you have withstood what you thought might crush you. It's about\r\nmeeting your limits and learning what you're capable of. \"I connected with\r\nthe idea that I could've easily collapsed beneath the weight of what happened\r\nto me, but I didn't. I didn't even know it,\" she says, \"but I was bulletproof the\r\nwhole time.\"\r\nBorn and raised in LA, Jensen McRae has studied and made music for most of\r\nher life. She attended Grammy Camp in high school and graduated from USC's\r\nThornton School of Music with a degree in Popular Music. McRae's debut\r\nalbum, Are You Happy Now?, was written mostly when she was just 21, and was\r\nthe first step in developing her now-devoted fanbase. Are You Happy Now?\r\nnavigates identity from it's deepest foundations - life as a young, bi-racial Black\r\nand Jewish woman - to it's most personal musings - do I trust you, do I trust\r\nmyself. McRae's trust in herself has borne out on multiple occasions, most\r\nrecently and maybe most famously in the form of \"Massachusetts\". McRae\r\nposted a solo verse and chorus, little more than a piece of a demo, and it\r\ncaught fire online. Covers, duets, and an avalanche of new fans followed, and\r\nMcRae capped the moment with a finished version and a summerlong tour\r\nsupporting Noah Kahan.\r\nI Don't Know How but They Found Me! Takes McRae's now-considerable\r\npowers and hardwires them for mass appeal. Stealth single \"Savannah\" is one\r\nfor the yearners. The pulsing, country-adjacent song immediately brings the\r\nbest of Phoebe Bridgers to mind, with McRae singing in an acrobatic whisper\r\nover a feather light acoustic guitar. By the time \"Savannah\" hits it's crescendo,\r\nit's crystal clear McRae is an artist with her own singular power, as piano layers\r\nwith guitar and McRae delivers a series of scathing indictments with grit and\r\nconviction: \"You swore you'd raise our kids to end up just like you \/ well you're a\r\nfalse prophet \/ and that's a goddamn promise.\" Meanwhile \"Let Me Be Wrong\"\r\nis a bona fide anthem, a \"buoyant ode to rejecting perfectionism.\" Built once\r\nagain on a simple vocal and acoustic guitar, \"Let Me Be Wrong\" builds step\r\nover step in it's defiance; guitars layer, drums pick up the pace, and McRae\r\nmakes space for everyone's mistakes. When McRae growls \"fuck those girls got\r\neverything\" it's a punch of both power and vulnerability, begging to be\r\nshouted in unison the biggest possible crowd.\r\nThe unusual title of her second album is taken from a line in McRae's favorite\r\nfilm, Back to the Future. A key protagonist survives a hail of bullets, and the\r\nimage resonated with McRae because, she said, she often feels a connection\r\nto some future self guiding her decisions, especially in times of crisis. It also\r\ninspired the album's cover, as McRae stands in a custom fireman's coat with\r\nthe job's official marks and symbols stitched alongside abundant ones of her\r\nown. The effect caught her off-guard; \"I was surprised how emotional it made\r\nme to be in the fire coat,\" she says, \"forced to stand still, stand powerfully. I\r\ncould feel myself becoming a symbol of my own hero's journey.\" If Are You\r\nHappy Now? was her coming of age, I Don't Know How But They Found Me! #is\r\nJensen McRae all grown up.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLabel: Dead Oceans\u003cbr\u003eUPC: 656605166520\u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: April 25, 2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrack List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Rearranger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e I Can Change Him\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Savannah\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Daffodils\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Let Me Be Wrong\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Novelty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e I Don't Do Drugs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Tuesday\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Mother Wound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Praying for Your Downfall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Massachusetts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"02- Alliance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56735506727285,"sku":"656605166520","price":2.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/8300\/2485\/files\/4406342-3332567.jpg?v=1770950131","url":"https:\/\/warmvibevinyls.com\/products\/jensen-mcrae-i-dont-know-how-but-they-found-me-cd","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
