Sophomore album Anak Ko due 08/23 on Polyvinyl
Jay Som aka Melina Duterte recently announced her highly-anticipated sophomore album, Anak Ko and today is sharing the record’s second single, “Tenderness.”
The track follows “Superbike” and is a slow-burning, guitar-led highlight off the album, with Duterte calling it a “feel-good, funky, kind of sexy song” in part about “the curse of social media” and how it complicates relationships. Watch the accompanying Weird Life-directed video below.
Anak Ko follows Jay Som’s debut effort, Everybody Works, which was widely praised upon its release in 2017. Jay Som is currently scheduled to play Pitchfork Music Festival next week and will soon take her new album on the road. See the full dates for the tour below and purchase tickets here.
