Jensen McRae - I’m Uncertain How, Yet They Discovered Me!

Jensen McRae - I’m Uncertain How, Yet They Discovered Me!

      Since the release of her remarkable ‘Who Hurt You?’ EP in 2021, Jensen McRae has been recognized as a gifted songwriter. Even in that initial project, the Californian artist managed to seamlessly capture a range of intense emotions across its six tracks, at times delivering genuinely heart-wrenching moments. Thus, it feels fitting that, in her debut with Dead Oceans, she once again embodies that sense of crystalline intimacy. The follow-up to her more conventional coming-of-age album ‘Are You Happy Now?’, ‘I Don’t Know But They Found Me!’ has her reflecting on her two most recent relationships and their ensuing breakups, traversing a wide spectrum of emotions in the process. There's the all-too-familiar naive hopefulness in ‘I Can Change Him’, the warm, indulgent country flair of ‘Let Me Be Wrong’ ("Let me get lost, the hard way’s the way I want / And I’ve been good too long”), and the high-road perspective in ‘Praying For Your Downfall’; these tracks explore the shattered fragments of her love stories while placing blame all around. However, it’s the breathtaking ‘Tuesday’ that delivers the most heart-wrenching moment; a raw, emotionally charged exploration of betrayal that is impossible to ignore, showcasing Jensen’s remarkable talent beautifully.
