Kaiti Jones Music

Boston-based singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Kaiti Jones with her album, <i>Tossed</i>. Produced and engineered by Future Teens’ Daniel Radin, the 9-track set is a sublime bridge of folk and indie rock following her 2017 debut, Vows, which KUTX says “drew affectionate comparisons to the flawed, human rock of Sharon Van Etten and Julia Jacklin.” Jones’s songs are rooted in existential angst or failed romances that grew into retrospective anecdotes, some evolving over years as she carefully crafted each lyric and fleshed out the story she wanted to tell. Vanyaland explains, “Tossed captures a hundred opposing sentiments with a diary-like approach to lyricism,” going on to note that “the album shares a soulful gateway to folk music for unsuspecting but staunch pop-rock lovers.” 

A notorious daydreamer, Jones has learned to harness the time spent inside her own head into a creative power, and on the meandering ballad Daydreaming, she plays her mind’s divergent tendencies with surprising twists. “I’m sorry I did not answer your question / I was busy writing my eulogy,” she sings with ease on the opening line. It’s provocative and maybe a bit morbid, but it’s this dark, tongue-in-cheek humor that allows Jones to survey the duality of the human mind throughout much of her songwriting. American Songwriter states, “By reclaiming her story, Jones created a song that is strikingly sensible and occasionally humorous” with “a natural, but well-polished soundscape.”
