With 2020 providing ample time for reflection and insight, Jus Kno’ seized the opportunity to fine-tune their creative frequencies and produce their debut studio album. Composed in quarantine, ‘Looped Circles’ represents the culmination of years of collective experience, inspiration, and dedication to their craft. Out on Friday, January 22nd via Spanish label Faneca Music, the lead single and title track off of the album foreshadows what’s in store from Jus Kno’s forthcoming full body of work this March.

Crafting an atmosphere brimming with emotion and yearning, “Looped Circles” [SINGLE] provides ample insight into what can be expected from the balance of the remaining 8 cuts of the album in-full.
