“The idea of using arrows as a metaphor ended up being the core of the song; it’s about persisting with what it is you want regardless and knowing that you get more than one shot, it might just take a few goes before something sticks,” she said.

James’ press confirmed that the ‘Arrows’ EP would feature six tracks, including previously released singles ‘Collide’ and ‘Something In The Water’.

Shannen James reflected on the “eclectic quality” of the EP in her statement, saying, “[The EP] captures a sense of nostalgia for me that shares little snapshots of moments in time.”

James also revealed that the EP’s recording location influenced the end product.

“Arrows was recorded in a tiny little home studio that was surrounded by big native trees and lots of bird noises and not a whole lot else. The studio itself was pretty tiny and that made me feel really connected to what I was making.”

‘Arrows’ is available for pre-order now.
