Fresh off the success of his breakout solo single ‘Between My Shadow and the Sun’, veteran Aussie rocker David Jones roars into 2025 with ‘New City New Love’ — a bold, anthemic celebration of transformation, rebellion, and hope. Arriving June 6, the track showcases a powerful new chapter for the seasoned guitarist and vocalist, known for his work with Choirboys, Ross Wilson, Dale Ryder and more.
Written during a soul-searching trip to the US and developed with long-time producer Cameron McKenzie (Mark Seymour), New City New Love is a 3:34 adrenaline rush — a driving indie-rock storm that begins with an ominous intro and explodes into a hook- heavy groove, open guitar lines setting the scene for Jones’s emotive, road-worn vocal.
The song builds with swagger and intensity: verses that pulse with momentum, a surprise cut-time chorus that hits like a call to arms, and a mid-song bridge that lifts the emotional stakes before the final refrain surges back, more urgent than ever. Jones sings of renewal and resistance — “New dawn, new day… New city, new love” — as if the very streets were rising to meet him.
New City New Love imagines a world rebuilt — brick by brick, scar by scar — where outsiders find power in unity, and change is not feared but embraced.
It’s not just a track. It’s a movement set to music.
