will release new album ‘Gentlethem’ on March 31st.

The UK-born and now Tallinn-based artist is a real inspiration, and CLASH has followed Jam’s career for 15 years now.

Built at Jam’s home studio, it reflects on shifts in their identity, with Planningtorock ruminating on their role as a trans elder.

Speaking on the album, Jam shared “This album felt like writing an autobiography. Each song documented part of my understanding of who I am after decades of being lost. A precise lyrical breakdown of the years of struggling as a trans person and how music gave me back my body and my life.” 

They also describe it as “almost a returning home, and going back. Because I can now, because I’m me.”

New single ‘Versions’ is out now – a reflection on different versions of themselves, Jam describes its light and optimism as “a gift to myself”.

Tune in now.

Catch Planningtorock at The ICA, London on December 4th.
