about

Underpinned by the steady rhythm of a beating heart, Sojourn’s melancholy and contemplative lyrics embark on a steadfast journey. Stone by stone, from the bottom of the well of depression and doubt, the listener is lifted into the light, and the singular realization that in life or death, tout va toujourn bien.

lyrics

A sunny day day
Still a shade of grey
A little listless
It tends to be this way
Shuffling so slow
Heavy undertow
Since there's no point it's best to let it go

Shadows growing long
Stuck on this track
The sun is behind
Is there no turning back?
Longer than it seems
The road to relief
When there's nothing
To hold you up but belief

Stay if you wanna
Lay with your troubles
Either way life will go on
Stay if to honour
Laughter of sweet daughters
Loved and lost tomorrow

Hey, it's gonna be okay
Hey, ça va bien aller

Wake up in slow mo
Lemons to receive
Colourless photos
And I don't wanna leave
Seems unimportant
Going after dreams
When suddenly life comes apart at the seams

Tell me what's the point
Of living a lie
Cooped in a cage
If we're all gonna die?
Taken by the wind
My life I will bet
And smile to think
That I have no regret

Stay if you wanna
Lay with your troubles
Either way life will go on
Stay if to honour
Laughter of sweet daughters
Loved and lost tomorrow

Hey, ça va bien aller

Stay if you wanna
Lay with your troubles
Either way life will go on
Stay if to honour
Laughter of sweet daughters
Loved and lost tomorrow

Stay if you wanna
Lay with your troubles
Either way life will go on
Stay if to honour
Laughter of sweet daughters
Loved and lost tomorrow

Hey, it's gonna be okay
Hey, ça va bien aller

about

Jitensha image

Jitensha Montreal, Québec

Jitensha is the garage rock love child of Erin Rose Hubbard and David Martinez. The sound is a silvery union of honey sweet proto-punkiness and modern indie that is harmonically reminiscent of 1950s rock & roll. With vocals, electric guitar and drums, stealing a niche somewhere between the White Stripes and the Civil Wars, Jitensha nestles catchy, poignant melodies into hard hitting rock grooves. ... more
