Meet & Greet with The Swedish dream pop band Joe & The Anchor

“Leaving You Now has been with us for a long time. We’ve all been in that situation, when the first real love of your life turns into your first heartbreak. We tried to really capture that feeling when we wrote this song” ~Joe & The Anchor

Joe & The Anchor release new piano ballad ‘Leaving You Now’ - an emotional break-up song about experiencing first love, to grow apart and realizing there is nothing left in the relationship worth fighting for. The singer Joakim's powerful yet emotional voice goes straight to the heart.

V1:

Why Am I, Still Caving In

Why Can’t I, Get Rid Of It,

Our Long Nights I’m Thinking About You,

Maybe If, I Didn’t Know,

Just How Much It Hurts To Go,

I Could Have Put This Behind Me

 

Chorus:

Cause Baby I Don’t Know What To Say,

Cause I Know I’m Losing Any Way,

But I’m Just So Tired Of, This Enemy Inside,

So Darling, I’m Leaving You Now

 

V2:

Why Am I, Back Here Again

Why Can’t I, Just Let Her In,

My Long Nights Without You Beside Me, Oh No

Why Can’t I, Make Up My Mind,

Always Leaving You Behind,

Still I Keep Thinking About You

 

Chorus:

Cause Baby I Don’t Know What To Say,

Cause I Know I’m Losing Any Way,

But I’m Just So Tired Of, This Enemy Inside,

So Darling, I’m Leaving You Now

 

Cause Baby I Don’t Know What To Say,

Cause I Know I’ll Lose You Any Way,

But I’m Just So Tired Of, This Enemy Inside,

So Darling, I’m Leaving You Now

 

Darling, I’m Leaving You Now

 

Darling, 

I’m Leaving

You Now

The single is the second one from their upcoming album ‘Coming of Age’ which explores the feelings of growing up, the fragility of life, love, and taking things for granted. Following a difficult few month when the band members had to experience the harsh reality of loss, Joe & The Anchor decided to process the events through music.

In addition to their musical expression, they attach great importance to their visual style, making all the material themselves.

The Swedish dream pop band Joe & The Anchor

“So Bad works as our own motivational song, it makes us remember why we do what we do. Setbacks are something everyone can relate to and the song's message is about fighting past it. Because in the end, the journey is always worth it.” ~Joe & The Anchor Band

Joe & The Anchor started out as an indie rock band in 2014, releasing several albums and singles. In 2018 they decided to start over and switch gears to writing contemporary pop music. With a strong visual style and modern production, Joe & The Anchor delivers energetic guitar-driven pop, defining themselves as a promising act on the Swedish pop scene.

Joe & The Anchor is a colorful pop band, with a sound reminiscent of bands like Foster The People, OneRepublic, Imagine Dragons, and 5 Seconds of Summer. The band is made up of members Joakim Rosenlund, Robin Zhang, Viktor Edsjö, Ruben Sonesson.

The Swedish dream pop band Joe & The Anchor are after one year of waiting finally back with new vibrating music - So Bad. So Bad is the first song to be released from the band since their debut EP Antidote last year. An uplifting track with electronic trap influences that captures the feeling of holding your head high even when life is challenging, a motto that has formed the band while they’ve stayed together through the ups and downs of life.

The quote also reflects how hard the friends Joakim Rosenlund, Robin Zhang, Viktor Edsjö, and Ruben Sonesson work for their success. 

During their years of being active JATA has been able to explore several different genres, play around Sweden and perform as supporting act for Mando Diao – all of which has formed them into a strong live band with a unique musical style. With their colorful sound, uplifting lyrics, and powerful vocals, Joe & The Anchor invites the listeners into their dreamlike world.
