Our new single, In a Different Time, is out today. You know the drill.

In a Different Time was part of a furious period of recording in winter 2024 that yielded 16 new songs, and we’re psyched to begin sharing this next chapter with you.

Unconscious People doesn’t stand a fucking chance in your algorithms. These songs are not designed to sound like some shit you’ve already listened to. They are just designed to sound like what’s in my head. I make the music that I wish existed and if I was doing anything other than that, there would be absolutely no point.

This music celebrates rawness and polish equally. It embraces meticulous attention to detail, improvisation, and happy accidents all at once. I love how it sounds because it’s exactly what I want it to be.

For anyone who’s weird enough to care about any of this, I sincerely believe you’ll be richly rewarded if you take a listen.

Part 3 is the first single off Unconscious People and it’s out in a week. That is, unless you head on over to Bandcamp and pre-order Unconscious People, in which case it’s out right now.

I’m incredibly excited to announce the next Commons 2 album, Unconscious People. Like Brian Wilson without any of the fans or money, I was engrossed in making this record for months and have labored over every detail.

Regardless of anything else, I can say with certainty that this is by far the truest representation of the music that’s in my head that has been put to tape (so far). And to be honest, that’s the only thing I really care about. I truly hope you’ll have the chance to listen. - JG

Massive shoutouts to:
- @josesoroeta Bass Guitar
- @brickbybrickstudios Engineering (drums)
- @skylarrossrecording Mastering

Real Life is, among other things, a song about the struggle of believing in music as art in a culture that overwhelmingly sees it as a cheap commoditized product. It’s also a bit of a diss song about people who purport to have “taste” but in reality lack the open-mindedness and imagination that they try so hard to convince people they possess. (There, I talked about my lyrics.)

My immensely talented best friend @kylecoultervids shot and produced this music video in Greenville, South Carolina in March. The video has little to do with the aforementioned lyrical themes, but it’s cool as hell. And now you can all watch it.
