Today, jxdn has also shared the forthcoming album’s lead single, "WHAT THE HELL," which is available on all streaming platforms and accompanied by an official music video directed by Hunter Moreno. WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS marks jxdn’s long awaited follow up to his celebrated debut album Tell Me About Tomorrow.
"What do I hear when the music stops? I heard silence like I had never heard before. I heard an emptiness that overtook me. I missed the music of my life, I missed the safety it gave me. I had lost my love for the feeling. I went to hell and back since my last album. I questioned myself, I questioned my music, and I questioned life and its purpose. And through all that, I heard faint sounds ever so often that resembled a beautiful melody. They guided me through the silence back to the place I call home - the music. Keep listening, Keep holding on to tomorrow. Especially when you don’t hear anything anymore. Especially when the music stops. This one's for. This one’s for you. This one’s for us." - jxdn
Having reached RIAA gold status and amassed over one billion streams worldwide, jxdn has established himself as a gen-z ambassador for a generation of fans too young to have experienced pop punk’s initial explosion in the 2000s.

WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS is available for pre-order today in a variety of physical formats including limited-edition signed vinyl and CDs with additional products launching in the coming weeks.
