Made up of Jackie Giroux and Caelen Perkins, LA indie folk outfit Jacklen Ro have shared a new single called “Time Bomb,” premiering now on Indie88.
Today’s release comes in anticipation of the band’s forthcoming debut album, out this year via Lolipop Records. Opening with sweet acoustic guitar lines and soft, buttery harmonies, the track slowly builds into an anthemic indie rock tune. It’s a pretty stunning energetic, yet angsty ballad that’s sure to get you singing along.
“‘Time Bomb’ is a song about a self-destructive relationship that just feels so good,” Jacklen Ro explain. “It is knowing that the fiery passion you have with someone is going to end, but not dwelling on that and enjoying it while you got it. It’s about accepting your own flaws and the flaws in others and just riding it all out.”
Listen to “Time Bomb” below.
THe band’s forthcoming album follows their self-released 2019 collection Love Junkies and their 2021 EP .
