Teen Daze shares ‘Morning World’ video

Vancouver’s Teen Daze will release, ‘Morning World,’ his first album via Paper Bag Records on August 14, 2015. ‘Morning World’ was recorded with John Vanderslice at Tiny Telephone, his all-analog studio in San Francisco with co-producer Simon Bridgefoot. Last week, we revealed the video for the album’s title track and single – watch it via YouTube below. Pre-order the album here from iTunes or pre-order the CD and vinyl here from Paper Bag Records.

In 2010, Jamison, the person behind Teen Daze, had no idea what ‘Four More Years’ would bring. That debut EP, a collection of blissful home recordings, was the work of a carefree 24 year-old. By 2012, things had changed, as they tend to do: relationships dissolved, illness affected his family, windows for outward communication were closing. The gravity of it all made for constant output; he reached for futuristic utopia with ‘All Of Us, Together,’ found a devotional sanctuary inside ‘The Inner Mansions,’ and embraced hibernation on ‘Glacier’. In hindsight, this was an artist coping through various forms of introverted escapism.

While proud of the material, Jamison sought to break this cycle when approaching the next record. He knew it would take a few leaps of faith, most directly: out of his bedroom…out of his comfort zone. For the first time, he gave up some control, inviting the input of others.
