      Jessy Lanza has released her new single ‘Slapped By My Life’.

      The Canadian artist's move to Los Angeles inspired her 2023 album ‘Love Hallucination’, giving her the opportunity to explore new sonic dimensions.

      After a brief hiatus, she returns with a new track, a poignant love letter to her partner, Winston H. Case, who is currently undergoing chemotherapy.

      UK producer Pearson Sound worked on the song, with rich, warm electronics complementing Jessy Lanza's captivating vocals.

      She shares: “I wrote ‘Slapped By My Life’ during my husband Winston’s chemotherapy treatment. The relentless treatment left him mostly bedridden, so while he slept, I composed this song for him. Finding a creative outlet has been difficult since cancer entered our lives, but I was determined to create something that would bring a smile to Winston’s face, which motivated me.”

      “Working with Pearson Sound made this track even more thrilling, as listening to his music always gives me a rush of joy. When I wrote ‘Slapped By My Life’, I yearned to feel something beyond sadness, to escape my thoughts and immerse myself in the music, if only for a few moments. I dedicate this song to my husband Winston and all the caregivers out there. You are the ones who keep the world moving.”
