Today multiple ARIA-Award winning, R&B-pop artist and proud Kuku Yalanji and Wakaman woman, Jessica Mauboy heralds her return with her brand new single “Glow”. A reintroduction of sorts to one of the country’s most celebrated and loved entertainers, Jessica Mauboy is looking into her future – and embracing what she sees there.
Inspired by nostalgic textures and drawn from a feeling of confidence that runs deep in her bones, “Glow “is destined to be the soundtrack of summer. The first new music since her 2019 ARIA #1 album Hilda and her debut release on Warner Music Australia, stream and download the single HERE.
The light spills out of “Glow”. It is pop music made divine and magical. Lyrically, it bottles up the struggle Mauboy has felt after going through periods of intense and acute personal growth. Tired of holding herself back from realising her potential, she forged ahead and, in doing so, found something close to euphoria, the sentiment echoed in the lyrics: “Maybe just let me glow / You need to let me go … I wanna do this alone / Let me be the one that I need to be to grow”.
“I got tired of being a ‘yes person’. Mentally, it was self-destructive: my body and my mind were saying, Hey, you gotta really take care of yourself“ says Jessica on the new single. “Glow stems from realising it’s okay to stop, zoom out and start over fresh. It took time, but fifteen years since she first burst onto the pop charts, Jessica Mauboy has started over. I really wanted to capture that sense of knowing myself. Glow is my confidence song; It’s my reminder that I’m where I need to be, that I’m just being. And that’s okay.”
The confident new single also comes alongside an equally striking music video. Directed by Ribal Hosn and styled by Jessica Dos Remedios, the video sees Mauboy relish in her new-found ‘glow’. Watch the video HERE.

To bring “Glow” to life, Mauboy assembled a new team and a suite of collaborators, including songwriter George Maple and electronic savants Cosmos Midnight; together, they made it a mission to craft empowered, self-actualised electronic pop with a decidedly personal bent.
“Glow” captures Jess’ personal nostalgia of watching her mother dance around the kitchen to Donna Summer, Diana Ross and Cher – bringing those memories into something familiar, universal and future-focused.
“I had all the in-depth thoughts while writing Glow, but also I just felt sparkly. I felt new. I felt rebooted. And I wanted it to feel like you’ve known this song forever” adds Jess on the writing process. “Glow came from a place of being in love with myself. And I think everyone has, through these past two years, had time to understand what and who they are. When it does get quiet, you hear and see yourself a little bit more.”
After most recently bringing her wealth of experience into her role as a coach on The Voice earlier this year, Mauboy is more assured and determined than ever to extract the most positive and motivating elements of all that she’s learned and infuse them into her new music.
Ahead of the annual AusMusic T Shirt Day, Jess has just launched her T Shirt for “Glow”, designed in collaboration with Soju Gang and available exclusively for purchase via Warner Music Australia HERE. With $5 from each sale being donated to Support Act.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
