about

In the guise of a lovelorn ballad, 'Ultimate Defender' speaks to a different kind of break-up, that between two friends whose relationship has gradually withered away. To some, it’s a more gut-wrenching dissolution than that of a former romantic flame. These breakdowns, be it subtle or ripped quick, let a sense of closure, or lack-there-of, linger long after the fact. Questions of “Was it my fault?”, “Would it be the same?” run rife, and it's this longing for a simpler time that 'Ultimate Defender' speaks to.

The project of Jamie Fanning, speaking to the track she shares "Ultimate Defender is a desperate plea for connection with a friend who has slowly slipped through the cracks. It's about wanting new connections and remembering the old ones. Simply, that "I miss us" feeling."

Lifted from her upcoming EP Funny How Things Turn Out, 'Ultimate Defender' is another peek into the musical world of Feign Jima whose enthralling dreamy-folk commands pause with each listen - a voice that stops you in your tracks, immediately moved. Joining the single is her recent release 'Beaches', praised by triple j Unearthed, FBi Radio, PBS, Trouble Juice and more.
