PLGRMS on Comeback Trail With “Disappear”

With singer-songwriter Jacob Pearson battling chronic pain and associated mental health problems, his musical project PLGRMS hit pause in 2019. However, he’s back working with fellow songwriter Jonathan Bowden and sounding better than ever. The Sydney duo’s new single “Disappear” is a triumphant return, with a dark and brooding sound you won’t quickly forget.

The duo said the track is like a “note to self,” adding “You want to take the first step, dive towards something new, but it’s so easy being resistant to change. Sometimes almost drowning is what it takes for us to learn how to swim.”

According to PLGRMS’ Facebook page, more new music is on its way sooner than we think. I can’t wait!

Morgan Joanel Releases Cool New Single, “Disappear”

Perth singer-songwriter Morgan Joanel has given me goosebumps with her sultry new single “Disappear.” This track is a masterclass in restraint, with smoky vocals and a cool groove. I can’t help thinking of cool ‘90s outfits like Portishead and Mazzy Star when I listen to it.

Morgan’s far from a household name, but she’s working in the business for the last decade. It’s a labour of love that’s taken her around the world and seen her signed to one of the world’s biggest record labels. Like so many musical journeys, it hasn’t been a fairytale ride though. Morgan recently moved back to her hometown of Perth and it seems the change is doing her good. While her time with a major label left her feeling creatively confined, she wrote “Disappear” in just 15 minutes. Hopefully that’s a sign her creative juices are flowing again.
