Nashville-based Jordan Lindley first got his start in the pop punk scene before transitioning into an independent singer/songwriter with his 2019 solo LP Pearl. A number of new EPs have followed in the intervening years, most recently with the 2023 EP Maybe all will be well Pt. 1. This release was the first taste of his upcoming full-length sophomore album, Maybe everything will be fine, which will be released this summer. This year, Lindley shared another new single from the record, “Ugly Everything,” and is back with his latest track, “Sometime Someday,” which is out now.
“Sometime Someday” is tense and simmering, finding Lindley enveloped in hypnotic and driving acres of guitar. Minimal chord changes and ever-present instrumentation create a dark and brooding calm, stripping the track down but keeping it under constant tension. Instead, the track puts the spotlight on Lindley and his vocals, moving in tight harmony over persistent repeating chords. His lyrics find him pining for a relationship that never seems to pan out, hoping something will change: “Even if we don't decide to leave together this time / I hope life has plans for us sometime someday / ” Because I don't” Don't pray unless I need things / And I'm sorry but I need it like I never needed anything.”
Lindley says of the track, “When you boil it down, it's really a song about acceptance—just, like, unhealthy, ignorant acceptance. Sometimes, it feels like the only way to “get over” something is to convince yourself that it's not over forever. In this song, I'm basically making a pact with myself that I will get over the loss of that meaningful relationship, ONLY if I know that that relationship has the potential to resurface somewhere down the line (although it usually doesn't).”
