Detroit’s Jax Anderson (FKA Flint Eastwood) releases her concept album Songs For Every Condition
Today, Detroit’s Jax Anderson (FKA Flint Eastwood) releases her concept album Songs For Every Condition on Neon Gold Records (Haim, Marina, Matt Maeson, The Knocks etc). She’s penned various human conditions, such as HOPEFUL, CLOUDY, HAPPY, ANGST and TRANSITION. The last, 5th installment about TRANSITION she chose to collaborate with joe p. on “Changes” and “Dancing Shoes” rounds out her 10 song album collection. Jax shot a video for “Changes” HERE.
Jax Anderson about “Changes”: “Change can be hard. Borderline one of the hardest things we go through as humans. But we all know it’s essential for growth, right? That doesn’t make it any easier. I wanted to write about the pains of change, but with an uplifting feel. Joe p was a great fit for this one – his voice carries a pain that I think lends itself to the themes of the track. Change is scary, but in the end it’s usually good.”

“Life happens in ways that are unpredictable & beautiful & everything/nothing all at once. There are so many moments to notice & feelings to cherish. A moment that happens when you’re happy, may feel different when your condition changes to sad or excited or healing or heartbroken or joyful. Life changes constantly – to me the soundtrack of life feels more like a playlist than an album. Songs For Every Condition was inspired by the different conditions of life. I didn’t force myself into a certain soundscape or to stick to a certain genre, but instead allowed the music to be inspired by the different conditions I was in at the time. What came out was a wonderful variety of honest songs.” Jax says about her album.
Jax Anderson, who changed from her Flint Eastwood moniker to her real name, has built a reputation for writing alt-pop anthems that boldly speak to overcoming the forces in the world that try and keep us from loving ourselves and actualizing our full potential.
