Jared James Nichols has premiered a new song titled “Pretend.” You can find a video for that track below. The single is from his new album, “Louder Than Fate,” which will be released on June 5.

Nichols commented on the single:

“‘Pretend’ hits like a live wire — gritty, pumping drums and guitar chugs that scream on the edge of chaos. Sometimes a relationship is all smoke, no fire; it’s just a borrowed desire.”

He also added the following about the album:

“I’m beyond excited for this record. I’ve been counting down the days until its release like it’s a personal holiday. If the singles are any hint for you, there are plenty of riffs ripping through the speakers like a buzz saw. But going deeper into the record, there are tons of different emotions and sounds that I have yet to explore as a singer/songwriter. I am personally thrilled to share different shades of myself on this record, giving so much more depth and insight to the listener. Get ready for ‘Louder than Fate’.”
