On her latest release ‘ex-friends’, Faroese pop-soul artist jazzygold dives into the raw complexities of fractured friendships. This single builds on the introspective foundation laid by her previous track ‘homerun’ and steps further into the terrain of emotional vulnerability. Rather than tales of romance gone sour, jazzygold turns her spotlight to those friendships that let her down, unravelling the reality that betrayal can often come from the ones you thought were closest.

The track finds jazzygold reclaiming her power after painful revelations, with her soulful voice delivering a blend of strength and introspection. In her words, ‘ex-friends’ resonates as an anthem for anyone who has faced the sting of false friends, reminding listeners of the strength it takes to cut ties and move forward. “Sometimes losing people is the best thing that can happen- keep your circle real,” she shares, speaking directly to those who know the hurt of friendship breakups.

As an artist, jazzygold continues to bring something refreshingly personal to the pop-soul scene. Her lyrics are candid, her voice deeply expressive, and her journey as a woman of colour from the Faroe Islands gives her an inspiring perspective for audiences worldwide. 

Since launching her project in early 2023, she’s been on an unstoppable rise, gracing international stages at events like Trondheim Calling, The Great Escape, and Iceland Airwaves. This latest single not only solidifies her place as a powerful voice in her genre but also as a role model for young girls looking to see themselves represented on the global music stage.
