Bewilderment
-
the
feeling
of
being
perplexed
and
confused
-
is
the
inspiration
behind
Pale
Jay's
new
album.
It's
a
soulful
exploration
of
a
family's
gradual
disintegration
due
to
years
of
avoidance
and
miscommunication.
During
this
difficult
time,
Pale
Jay
began
to
question
the
stories
he
had
always
lived
with
and
re-examined
his
identity.
The
resulting
work,
Bewilderment,
is
his
first
full-length
album,
which
strives
to
find
answers
to
these
questions
and
more.
The
album
is
set
to
release
on
8/18/2023
on
Karma
Chief
Records,
a
subsidiary
of
Colemine.
Pale
Jay
is
a
trained
jazz
vocalist
and
pianist,
and
he
wrote,
recorded,
and
produced
all
songs
on
the
album,
except
for
'By
The
Lake',
which
is
a
collaboration
with
labelmates
Okonski
-
Steve
Okonski,
Aaron
Frazer,
and
Michael
Montgomery.
Pale
Jay's
music
is
influenced
by
a
wide
range
of
songwriters,
including
Labi
Siffre,
Carole
King,
and
William
Onyeabor.
'Bewilderment'
is
a
seamless
blend
of
Pale
Jay's
trademark
dusty
soul,
slow
disco,
and
Afrobeat,
with
string
arrangements
by
Raven
Bush
adding
an
extra
layer
of
magic
to
the
beat-
heavy
productions.
Pale
Jay's
debut
LP
is
a
captivating
journey
of
self-discovery.
Each
song
on
Bewilderment
tells
a
unique
story,
but
they
all
share
a
common
theme
of
personal
growth
and
self-understanding.
