Jimmy & The Veil’s New Single “Blink Twice” Offers Hope in the Face of Darkness

Yorktown, VA – Alternative rock artist Jimmy & The Veil explores themes of regret and self-forgiveness in his newest single, “Weightless” featuring Andrew Wells of Dance Gavin Dance. The emotionally charged single grapples with mental health and the journey of accepting oneself despite past mistakes. “Weightless” ft. Andrew Wells is now available on streaming platforms worldwide.

Jimmy & The Veil delves into the raw essence of the human experience with “Weightless,” a poignant track that explores the universal struggle of grappling with regrets and the path toward self-forgiveness. “I think we all have regrets that we wrestle with—those lingering feelings that no amount of forgiveness can fully erase,” says James Wright, the artist behind Jimmy & The Veil. “To me, that defines the human condition. It’s proof of an innate sense of morality and goodwill.” Through this single, Wright encourages listeners to extend the same compassion and understanding to themselves that they would offer to others. Collaborating with Andrew Wells of Dance Gavin Dance brings an extra layer of artistry to the song. “I was stoked to have Andrew work his magic on this track with me,” Wright shares. “He’s one of my heroes in the scene—a true artist and an incredibly hard worker.” The result is a powerful, introspective song that resonates with anyone navigating the complexities of self-reflection and personal growth.

Jimmy & The Veil, the solo project of Virginia-based artist James Wright, delivers raw emotional depth to the indie alt-rock scene, uncovering life’s genuine truths behind its facades. Inspired by artists like Kurt Travis, Jimmy Eat World, and Moxy the Band, Wright channels personal battles with mental health, societal challenges, and faith into introspective, relatable music. His journey began as a high school lyricist and evolved through college as he honed his guitar skills, but it wasn’t until adulthood that he fully committed to his craft. After playing in various bands, Wright launched Jimmy & The Veil in 2023 as a passion project, quickly gaining recognition with his debut single, “Diamonds.” With further praise from Kill The Music and New Noise Magazine, and most recently being named one of the Hot 100 Artists of 2024 by Music Connection Magazine, Wright’s heartfelt storytelling and mature, sometimes cynical outlook position Jimmy & The Veil as a rising force in the scene.
