The new album, Experiencing Feelings of Joy from The Jungle Giants is an apt title not only for the listener, but its creator. Careening from crushing personal loss to hopeful exuberance, it’s an album Sam Hales could only write after thinking he’d never be able to write one again.
“I'd overextended and kind of cooked it, but I really found myself,” he says. “That’s where the joy comes from, having this unwavering hope even after experiencing adversity. This record is what everything culminated in for me, because I'm so in love with it and I'm so addicted to music again.”
Following the release of their 2021 ARIA #1 album Love Signs, The Jungle Giants have cemented their position at the forefront of Australia’s indie dance scene, amassing nearly a billion streams in the process. With a reputation for electric high-energy performances, the band is made up of Sam Hales (vocalist/guitarist/songwriter/producer), lead guitarist Cesira Aitken, bassist Andrew Dooris and drummer Keelan Bijker.
