Tiali Releases ‘Jigsaw’
Sometimes I’ll hear a song and think “man, this is going to go off live”. Songs like ‘Covered in Chrome’ by Violent Soho and ‘Black Thumbnail’ by Kings of Leon do that for me. Another song I can add to that list is ‘Jigsaw’, the new track by Central Coast based musician Tiali.
Co-written and produced by Holy Holy’s Oscar Dawson, ‘Jigsaw’ is the kind of song I can imagine jumping around to at a dingy little pub or a massive music festival. In fact, if I had any friends, I would invite them around my place to bounce around the living room to it. But I don’t.
On the song, Tiali says “It’s a reflection of chaos in many aspects. Life gets messy and often, the state of your mind, relationships, lifestyle and physical surroundings are interconnected. The opening lines, “are you a jigsaw? Cause I’m having an awfully hard time trying to figure you out”, I initially wrote about myself, from my partner’s perspective, but as the song progressed, it became apparent to me that I was not only drawing meaning from my relationship with him, but also speaking to myself, calling myself out on the bullshit, and telling Tiali to get it together”.
To accompany the release of ‘Jigsaw’, Tiali has released a music video which is every bit as hectic as you could imagine for a song like this. You can check that out below.
Coming in at under 3 minutes, ‘Jigsaw’ is the perfect song to chuck on repeat for as long as you need. I can’t wait to hear what’s next from Tiali.
