Pisgah’s Latest Single Favor Turns Heartache Into Sonic Strength

Last month, I had the pleasure of interviewing Brittney Jenkins, a Southern American singer/songwriter who now calls London home. Performing under the moniker Pisgah, she had just released an utterly beautiful tune called Cumulonimbus, and I knew immediately I'd be following her musical footsteps. Thankfully, she hasn’t wasted any time continuing down her path - and recently gifted the world another absolutely stunning track in the form of Favor. Let's dive in.

Building on the dreamy atmosphere of its predecessor, Favor drifts in with grace and warmth. That said, there's also a rockier, dare I say grungier undercurrent that keeps it from floating away entirely. 

Drawing on inspiration from artists like Aimee Mann, Hayley Williams, and American rockers Momma, Brittney's latest single channels a fearless spirit. It's as vulnerable as it is unflinchingly powerful, as the artist provides a post-mortem of a relationship gone bad.

"I wrote Favor at a really difficult time, when I was in the middle of falling out with someone close to me," says Brittney. "I felt myself trying so hard to meet their expectations, and feeling completely incapable because I couldn't stop abandoning my own needs in the relationship."

A musician of the very highest order, Pisgah is a name that you'll undoubtedly be hearing more and more of going forward.
