JoJo Worthington’s music is infinite. This Montreal-based producer / songwriter / composer crafts intimate recollections that explode into limitless soundscapes. Worthington’s work pushes emotionally potent songs to the perilous edge.
Over the past decade, JoJo Worthington has emerged as a distinct presence in creative Canadian music. Having wandered through the “lost, enchanted forest” (Bandcamp, New & Noteworthy) of 2016’s breakthrough album, \\, and sailed the seas of her epic avant-pop odyssey TCYK (2019), BAPTIZED I sees this visionary songcrafter adorning her armour, grabbing her sword, and beginning a quest for a destination that isn’t tangible—a quest towards the divine.
BAPTIZED I leaves no stone of Worthington’s distinctive sonic palette unturned. Uniting <a href="spotify:artist:1r1uxoy19fzMxunt3ONAkG" data-name="Phoebe Bridgers">Phoebe Bridgers</a>-esque hooks with the electronics sensibilities of <a href="spotify:artist:63MQldklfxkjYDoUE4Tppz" data-name="M83">M83</a>, these songs match confessional intimations with grand gestures. They bring Death, the devil, and the Holy Ghost into scenes of high school bush parties and wintertime walks along the St. Lawrence. Combining earthly and celestial sounds, BAPTIZED I stands between worlds as Worthington yearns to make her “flesh connect / to the world as it is / and to be as the spirit is.”
