From heartbreak to hope Joneaux on the story behind "Run Away"

Loading player...
Had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with South African indie-pop artist Joneaux to chat about his brand-new single "Run Away" and trust me, this one's a banger.
We dove into the deeply personal story behind the track (inspired by someone very close to him), the DIY recording process with fiancé Michaela Vice and friend Timothy Drew, and how working with producers Ben Reid and Devon Murray brought it all to life. From bedroom studios to radio waves this is independent music done right.
"Run Away" is out NOW an uplifting, dance-ready anthem about escaping a tough past and running toward a brighter future with the people you love.
Catch the full interview and find out why Joneaux is one of SA's most exciting indie voices right now.
