Tobias Jesso Jr. performs new track at Maida Vale

Tobias Jesso Jr. performed at the BBC’s Maida Vale studio last night, playing a new track from his upcoming album ‘Goon’.

Alongside current single ‘How Could You Babe?’, Jesse debuted ‘Bad Words’ and played a cover of Big Star’s ‘Thirteen’ during Zane Lowe’s session. Jesso told Lowe that ‘Bad Words’ is the antithesis to his previously singles, a song that reflects taking the blame for a failed relationship once the damage is done.

Tobias Jesso Jr. will release ‘Goon’ on 17th March via True Panther Sounds. Catch him performing around UK/Europe on the following dates:

MAY
06 London, The Courtyard Theatre
07 London, The Courtyard Theatre
08 Manchester, Night & Day Cafe
10 Dublin (IE), Unitarian Church
