It has really captured 70-style funk and the uplifting sounds of The Brothers Johnson, Daft Punk and Caribou. ![](https://ci5.googleusercontent.com/proxy/QgVYVgeM1DnSa_OOBjlf-zmGg9YHt9f07PdUZrs- iHYzWR9ZVcd_mj1HSOeUSvUpc0UgpwjKkI5PzwI9Kr_0o5EcZja1-JheK_8cYcS4IVtsZ46f9VZWN09uiTF7g3y3nrRgUEBer9VEHHufm8uDUvexULWr_g =s0-d-e1-ft#https://mcusercontent.com/f67b4587af2b2ef9aa80ed984/images/f0fa6d4b- 3c17-4236-97a1-1571125dde45.jpg) **MADDOX JONES** photo credit: Tom Stilgoe He says: _“There’s some uncertainty with things opening up and whether the timing is right for that. Maybe this song will bring comfort to someone who’s still waiting to re-engage with the world… that things might be hard right now but they will eventually be ok again. The song also has a playful side, reminding us to find joy in the small things: “Let this melody from my head take you somewhere else instead”._ Written and produced alongside David Crawford over the past year, ‘Somewhere There’s A Plan (Believe It)’ features good friends of Jones who brought a certain level of maturity to the track. **Lewis Cardinal **sits in on bass and guitar, whilst ** Christian Pinchbeck **(_Girlhood_) is strapped on the saxophone to spark lift-off. In addition, **Louis Souyave **(who worked on Jones’ _Headspace_ EP) sprinkles his production magic over the tune, elevating it to perfection. Maddox Jones made his solo debut in 2020 with the synth-heavy electronica of his _Headspace _EP. Well- received as that EP was, Jones is never one to sit still creatively – and he proved the worth of his songwriting nous with **70,000+ Spotify plays of last single **“ Can’t Wait For The Summer”. With ‘Somewhere There’s A Plan (Believe It)’ ready to go, 2021 is shaping up to be just the tonic for the East Midlands singer-songwriter and his growing army of fans.Maddox Jones will also be releasing a short-film animation to accompany the release directed by Alex Gwyn Davies._“The video is about escaping the matrix of expectations that most of us seem to end up via school, family, media etc. The typical 9-5 doing something you don’t necessarily care about, living to blow off steam for a couple of days at the weekend and maybe on holiday. Then ultimately, finding a catalyst that can interrupt that and tasting freedom”_With a debut album imminent, his work has been praised far and wide by **SPIN, American Songwriter,** the **BBC, **and many more media outlets across the globe. ![](https://ci6.googleusercontent.com/proxy/EaKEOLBnI-Fl8egFS2pqrnfK2jPPcvSmHaJM1SyGVc3gNv6PMmPP0UWziWa1pRlU474qXDK9tGSGhGkG5pLjVeuVeJ6o91IHjJW0oW_FDdFLmGNH0rY5G_Lc3IhRBmhXkoU- NhHIyKknLiArhDZHJNdCxyEEPj_OYNbqTg=s0-d-e1-ft#https://mcusercontent.com/f67b4587af2b2ef9aa80ed984/ _compresseds/6415db0e-b7ee-ac53-1b44-52a000c7537c.jpg) **“Somewhere There’s A Plan (Believe It)” **single artwork [Twitter](https://reybee.us13.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f67b4587af2b2ef9aa80ed984&id=939228bdbe&e=615f2b8493) [ Facebook](https://reybee.us13.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f67b4587af2b2ef9aa80ed984&id=4eeb257a9c&e=615f2b8493) [ Spotify](https://reybee.us13.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f67b4587af2b2ef9aa80ed984&id=fb61ce9fc8&e=615f2b8493) [ Instagram ](https://reybee.us13.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f67b4587af2b2ef9aa80ed984&id=2a62e4fdf0&e=615f2b8493) [YouTube](https://reybee.us13.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f67b4587af2b2ef9aa80ed984&id=8e6acf4085&e=615f2b8493) ### Share this: * [ Facebook ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/maddox-jones-offers-post-pandemic-optimism-with-his-new-single-somewhere-theres-a-plan-believe-it/?share=facebook) * [ X ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/maddox-jones-offers-post-pandemic-optimism-with-his-new-single-somewhere-theres-a-plan-believe-it/?share=x) * [ Email ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/maddox-jones-offers-post-pandemic-optimism-with-his-new-single-somewhere-theres-a-plan-believe-it/?subject=%5BShared%20Post%5D%20MADDOX%20JONES%20offers%20post-pandemic%20optimism%20with%20his%20new%20single%20%22Somewhere%20There%27s%20A%20Plan%20%28Believe%20It%29%22&body=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nyrdcast.com%2Fmaddox-jones-offers-post-pandemic-optimism-with-his-new-single-somewhere-theres-a-plan-believe-it%2F&share=email) * [ LinkedIn ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/maddox-jones-offers-post-pandemic-optimism-with-his-new-single-somewhere-theres-a-plan-believe-it/?share=linkedin) * [ Mastodon ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/maddox-jones-offers-post-pandemic-optimism-with-his-new-single-somewhere-theres-a-plan-believe-it/?share=mastodon) * [ Nextdoor ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/maddox-jones-offers-post-pandemic-optimism-with-his-new-single-somewhere-theres-a-plan-believe-it/?share=nextdoor) * [ Pinterest ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/maddox-jones-offers-post-pandemic-optimism-with-his-new-single-somewhere-theres-a-plan-believe-it/?share=pinterest) * [ Reddit ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/maddox-jones-offers-post-pandemic-optimism-with-his-new-single-somewhere-theres-a-plan-believe-it/?share=reddit) * [ Tumblr ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/maddox-jones-offers-post-pandemic-optimism-with-his-new-single-somewhere-theres-a-plan-believe-it/?share=tumblr) ### Like this: Like Loading… ### _Related_
