Sydney based based Folk Pop artist Jolin Jiang has released her mesmerising debut single ‘The Monkey And The Tree’, which was premiered exclusively via AAA Backstage.

The enchanting single focuses on one-sided relationship dynamics and the longing to be understood by your significant other. 

“We choose to love each other, even during the times when we struggle to like each other. Being the “monkey”, I love having a stable “tree” to hold onto. I am the restless, energetic one that can be a tad bit annoying, while the “tree” is patient, understanding, protective and suffers in silence but secretly enjoys it. ⁠ “You say ‘I tolerate you’ but I hear ‘I love you”, My partner can say whatever he wants but it doesn’t stop me from “translating” what he says into what I want to hear and what I think he truly means.⁠”

Jolin Jiang is an extremely versatile artist who possesses a unique spirit and sound. Jiang has studied classical music for over 18 years in Shanghai and Sydney, working as a composer, orchestrator and music teacher. 

In 2018, Jiang was selected as one of the finalists for San Francisco International New Concept Film Festival. In 2020, Jiang’s composition, ‘Weathered’ received 2nd place in the Flute Society of NSW Composition Competition.
