JESSIA has a knack for turning complex emotions into anthems, and her latest single, “Moved Around You,” is no exception. Having just completed her first-ever headline tour, the Vancouver-born, LA-based pop artist delivers a song that hurts where you least anticipate it—then makes you want to sing along anyway.
On a foundation of inspiring melodies and conversational lyricism, “Moved Around You” addresses the imbalance of over-giving in an unbalanced relationship. The chorus is as memorable as it is emotive, the kind of song that lingers long after the first listen. JESSIA’s signature honesty shines through, catching the gut-punch realization that you were just going around someone who never actually let you in.
It always hurts to love more than the other person, but this song does that hurt and makes it into something strong,” JESSIA asserts. And that’s exactly what she does best—making personal hardship into cathartic, radio-friendly jewels.
Since her viral breakout with “I’m Not Pretty” in 2021, JESSIA has built a career on fearless self-expression. Her 2022 Juno Award win for Breakthrough Artist cemented her status as a rising star, and she’s kept the momentum going, independently releasing her sophomore EP Okay With Every Part in 2024. Now, “Moved Around You” is another step forward, proving she’s still evolving, still pushing, and still making us feel every lyric.
With over 400 million streams to her name, JESSIA is not a fleeting, momentary viral sensation—she’s pop’s newest—and most compelling—newcomer. And by the sound of “Moved Around You,” she’s hardly warming up.
