Jean Dawson – “3 HEADS*”
“3 HEADS*” will worm its way into your chest and start its own beat—that’s just how monsters do it and Jean Dawson is about to kick your speakers over Kaiju-style. Sometimes raging with a roughness, sometimes spacey and smooth like surfing stars, “3 HEADS*” belongs to you from the moment you hear it—not just as an anthem but to show off all your monstrous sides and never let the villagers or the pitchforks stop you.
