Jay Som – a.k.a. Melina Duterte – will release her highly anticipated sophomore album Anak Ko, later this month, and today she shares the record’s third single, the lovely and restless road song “Nighttime Drive.” About accepting and becoming stronger from constantly being on the road, the song “basically encapsulated my entire life for the past two years,” she explains. The track receives a hilarious, paranormal video which director Han Hale describes as “an homage to the song’s namesake; the song is about being a band on the road and the camaraderie involved.”

Anak Ko will be released on August 23rd via Polyvinyl (N.A), Pod/Inertia Music (AUS/NZ/Asia), and Lucky Number (ROW). Pre-order and pre-save the album HERE.
