PREMIERE: The Jonah Medal return with 'From M To M'

Following the success of 'Septembering', The Jonah Medal are back with their highly anticipated follow-up, 'From M To M' – out on May 19, and premiering below now.

Bjorn Baillie, the mastermind behind the project, draws influence from the likes of John Lennon and The Waterboys on the track – recorded in Laurel Canyon, Los Angeles and Nick Cave’s studio in Brighton – as he explores 40-something life through the lens of family, friendship and fatherhood.

“The last single ‘Septembering’ was about that journey as a couple from early days straight through to family and all that brings," Baillie says. "This song is like the impatient foot-tap of midlife - eager to keep pushing and creating."

Founded in Brighton last year, The Jonah Medal began as a creative mission for Baillie to expand the horizons of his own musical progression, following years spent playing with his band La Rocca. He spent his 20s with the group, signing a major record deal, relocating to LA and touring with the likes of Phoenix, Jet, Silversun Pickups.

“Having written for many years for a band who needed singles and album tracks, The Jonah Medal is my finally feeling comfortable addressing the issues in my own life, in my friends’ lives, and the lives of my peers,” he explains.

“I’m asking my own generation if they’re okay. Mid-life is here for so many of us. With older parents and young children… we’re the generation squeezed in the middle trying to hold it all together. That's what I’m addressing, all following my lead to serve the song, with sincerity and warmth.”
