Award-winning musician and songwriter, Jann Klose today releases his brand-new single “Surrender” which is also the title track from his forthcoming studio album due for release on the 3rd of March 2023.
Following on the success of recent singles “Sugar My” (which has been watched over 230,000 times on YouTube) and “Flesh and Blood”, Jann’s latest single “Surrender” is another phenomenal release from him.

Jann Klose delves into the inspiration and theme behind “Surrender”
“’Surrender’ isn’t meant to be understood in the traditional sense, it doesn’t refer to ‘losing’ per se. Quite the opposite, it’s actually about winning! Winning, because there is enough strength inside to arrive at a point of true peace. A ‘letting go’ of baggage and a new, different approach to love, connection and self-awareness that wasn’t present before.”
You can stream the track on all major streaming platforms, find the links HERE.
Jann Klose gives us a taste of what the making of the album was like and some of the incredible people involved
“The ‘Surrender’ album was created under the most unusual of circumstances. We were dealing with a global pandemic and a complete shutdown of music venues and recording studios. My co-writer for more than half the album, Alex Forbes and I got together bi-weekly at her apartment in Manhattan and poured our souls into the songs during the strangest of times.”
“Producer Marcus Dembinski and I worked in person at our home studios in Manhattan and Queens, then started adding live instruments at Studio G Brooklyn with engineer Cyril Putzer when it became possible. A lot of recording was done remotely. Max Sternlicht, who played all the great bass lines you hear on most of the record, I — as of this writing — still haven’t met! Dimitris Menexopoulos recorded his Cretan Lyra in Greece, and Ben Kesler mastered ‘Surrender’ in St. Louis, MO.”
Jann Klose returns to South Africa at the end of March 2023 for the Surrender Album Tour, which will see Jann perform in the Western Cape, KZN and Gauteng. The first date announced for the tour is for the 30th of March at Cafe Roux in Noordhoek (Cape Town) and tickets are on sale HERE.
