Dillon Jo Announces New Single ‘Good Person’
Te Whanganui-a-Tara’s staple, Dillon Jo, have discovered vibrant chemistry since making quite a stir in Wellington, playing numerous shows including opening for The Rions, Foley, Wet Denim, Hemi Hemingway and Coast Arcade only to name a few.
Since their last dreamy blend of pop and anti-rock release ‘Jo’, they have been culminating their craft into a bigger sound of what is their new single Good Person.
Their fourth single is a coming of age, relatable, alternative-rock ballad exploring the self-doubt and fear that can come from growing apart from people you once cared about. Through vulnerable moments and heavy distortion, it asks one lingering question: after all this time, do you still see me as a good person? The track merges melodic guitar with distorted, shoegaze tones while capturing the emotions of feminine rage, and yearning.
Inspired by the likes of Spacey Jane, Mercury and Paramore, Dillon Jo’s new single Good Person releasing on June 12 solidifies their place in the Wellington music scene.
“Good Person is about leaving something with good intentions but still carrying guilt. When you don’t get closure, you’re stuck wondering if they think you’re a bad person and eventually you start wondering that about yourself too.” – Georgie Levien (vocalist/guitarist)
Originally written by the band’s two lead singers acoustically, Sanson-Burnett (bass/producer) and Munro (drums) have since transformed the song into a fiery, and emotionally hard-hitting number, showcasing the band’s evolving style of songwriting and growing potential for international reach.
