The latest single from Jenny Kern is "Now We Know," is a song about coming to the end of a relationship: the combination of disappointment, emotional pain, and the relief that comes from finally finding a sense of closure. A prominent electric bass compliments the luscious drum groove and clean arpeggios, while Kern's dreamy lead vocal cuts through the mix with a wistful vulnerability.

Jenny performed around Montreal as a college student before moving to NYC in 2013, where she quickly worked her way up to producer in the film and television industry at NBC. In 2018 Jenny decided to take a leap of faith and pursue her passion for music and songwriting full-time. Since the release of her debut EP in April 2019, she has already experienced her first international tour of Europe, with features on MTV and ABC. Following up on her early success, Jenny Kern is doubling down on her confessional style of indie pop, with a song that will resonate with anyone that has been forced to move on from a love that once felt like it was everything. "Now We Know" unpacks a sensitive moment with a disarming and honest humility, as Jenny Kern speaks the language of heartbreak with rare artistic poise.

Now we know
