Tāmaki Makaurau-based indie songwriter Jack Moser fearlessly channels his personal experiences into heartfelt compositions. With an unwavering commitment to authenticity, he bares his soul into each and every song.

A gentle ode to the broken-hearted, ‘Where You Are’ is a spacious, dreamy trip of a tune that delves into the black hole of a dying intimate relationship – from the early signs signalling separation, to the inevitable breaking away that sets you floating lost and powerless in a dark and lonely orbit.

Says Jack: “I wrote ‘Where You Are’ as my relationship was coming to an end. It was clear from the signs, and I knew it was coming. The lyric “And I wonder where you are” describes the helplessness I had as I saw my partner becoming more distant emotionally, while the lyric “I can sense you’re not that far” displays the hope and optimism I was holding onto.”

For the music video, Jack chose to dress as a space man as an accurate representation of his feeling alien, floating isolated and disconnected while experiencing the world navigating a very personal grief.

“When you think you’ve found your person, and they slowly drift away, it’s lonely torture. I want people to have this song as their friend who understands them, comforts them, and also allows them to sit with that pain”, adds Jack.

An exemplary relationship break-up track, launch ‘Where You Are’ off your playlist when needed – it’s the comforting friend who picks up the fragmented pieces and is there with you, ready when you are, for your eventual re-entry into the world at large.
