Enticing us with an atmospheric add lib, Jack Tracy opens Tired of Being Lonely with immersive keys and the thought-provoking lyrics, “Craving acceptance that you’ll never know, and try to ignore all the chances you blow…”

The opus marks the second single from Jack Tracy‘s Gold era, and Jack confesses that the broody EDM track is “a call to make deeper emotional connections rather than moving from one person to the next.” We always appreciate the message accompanied with Jack’s artistry, and the visuals for Tired of Being Lonely are also out of this world!

Filled with sonic intricacies, and a pulsating beat with vocal echoes, Tired of Being Lonely is a profound composition with an optimistic edge as Jack sings, “we could make our own heaven…”

Speaking on the release, Jack confesses, “This is probably my most current sounding track. With reference to how the song’s lyrics are an exploration of the deep well of loneliness and insecurity that can sit at the core of gay men, Jack adds with wisdom, “You search for salvation out on the floor, might find validation but always need more.”

The cinematic music video, directed with Joseph Patrick Conroy, is outstanding and features Jack in an infinity room with mannequins and awesome choreography performances bringing to life the abstract mood of Tired of Being Lonely.

Jack Tracy is also the founder and owner of Necessary Outlet, which has produced several LGBTQ works including feature film, Snowflake, three critically acclaimed seasons of the web series History, and comedies Big Law and Millennial Memoir.

Jack also produces and headlines numerous monthly music residencies throughout New York City including at The Stonewall Inn, Icon Bar and Starr Bar. He is set to perform the entirety of his upcoming album, Gold, and a slew of his other songs, at his first headline show at City Winery in New York on Sunday October 2.

We featured Jack Tracy last month for their single and uncensored video, It’s Time, today the rising artist is back with his new single, Close.

Setting the tone with almost Janet Jackson-esque drums and giving us a mid-tempo smooth-pop bop energy, Jack gets vulnerable on the new single, discussing “a relationship that was held together through sex”.

The narrative of the song tells the story of love lost, and former proximity with someone which has now changed over time, reminiscing on a former relationship held together by sexual chemistry. We are to expect a controversial music video to follow. 

“This is my favourite song I’ve ever done,” says Jack Tracy speaking from his New York home about the new single. “For me, this song harkens back to the R&B mid-tempo chart toppers of the 90s.”

The song has proven to be his most popular in his live performances, je says “I’ve been previewing this song for months in my shows because I’ve just been so excited to release it. Of everything in my set list, this is the one people reach out to me about the most, asking me if it’s available.”

When discussing the video, Jack says it will be sexy, but will also “deal with some very heavy mental health and relationship issues”.

We can’t wait to experience it and have been immersing ourselves in Jack’s wider discography including Daddy Made It and his Aaliyah cover of If Your Girl Only Knew. Close has also been added to our New Music Spotlight playlist.
