Bnny and the cool black and white hush of "Time Walk" (Official Video)

 










"things change, people too..."


Oh the power of the downbeat. Especially double guitar strikes against percolating tom tom drum beat. It makes you want to move, to walk. Bnny, aka Chicago based Jess Viscius, knows the alluring power of the downbeat, throw her cool captivating vocal aesthetic in the mix and you have "Time Walk". So damn simple but not. Sweet blends of sounds and lyrics and the perfect beat to create an alluring piece of indie art pop is ultimately a rare thing. 

Of the track, Viscius offers: “‘Time Walk’ is about the clarity you find when in motion—walking, driving, running. It’s about a friendship ending, but still feeling connected to the person. It’s about looking back while moving forward in slow motion. Time walk is a wake-up call.”

["Time Walk" was produced by fellow Chicago musician and Fire Talk artist, Dehd’s Jason Balla. The video, which features Jess, was partly shot on the Lake Michigan coastline. It offers a glimpse of Bnny’s strong visual aesthetics.]

Jess Viscius started Bnny in the moment, after someone's guitar had been left at her apartment. After teaching herself a few chords, she quickly found songwriting to be therapeutic in ways visual art couldn't touch. Eventually, her sister Alexa and former Bnny drummer Drew Ryan persuaded Jess to start a band, and it ultimately stuck, along with a newfound community and friendships.

Their new song, “Time Walk,” is a taste of Bnny’s crackling energy, clocking in at just over a minute and a half. It layers in quick succession with plucky bass, uncomplicated drums, and jumpy guitar lines. Throughout, Viscius’ half-whispered vocals are cool to the touch. It was produced by fellow Chicago musician and Fire Talk artist, Dehd’s Jason Balla.
