It’s about when it hurts because you’re trying to be friends but you both want to be more. My life in Bristol fell apart when I came out and, having no safe place to live, I was staying on queers’ sofas in Manchester, traumatised and in no place to start a relationship.“It was beyond healing recording this track in LA with Phoebe, Lucy and Julien, along with my Manchester dolls Eden and Phoenix and with extra layers from local trans musicians Vixen, Bobby, Addy and of course the incredible Trans Chorus of Los Angeles.”Take a listen to ‘Elephant’ down below:‘Kitchen’‘Skin On Skin’‘Highfield’‘Breaking In Reverse’‘You Are The Morning’‘Best Friend’s House’‘Guy Fawkes Tesco Dissociation’‘Tall Girl’‘New Shoes’‘Roan’‘Elephant’‘Transition’‘Woman’Previously, Jasmine also released the album’s first single ‘Skin On Skin‘, which Jasmine wrote about experiencing physical touch. “I was still married at the time, though we’d taken a six-month break to have no contact and to see other people,” she said of the track. “In that period, I was struggling with PTSD and didn’t think it was a good idea to be starting another relationship.”Jasmine shared that the track was written about a friend-turned-lover, adding: “Sticking to the physical boundaries we wanted to have with each other became increasingly difficult.
