Published by New Jersey Stage

originally published: 06/11/2021


After a year of isolation took a toll on our collective minds and bodies, New Jersey native Remember Jones is here with a feel-good, body positive anthem "fat jeans," along with its playful video animated by Tyler March. Featuring horns from Turkuaz, the relatable track promises to boost your mood and make you move. Through an animated video, which unites all couch and screen-lovers alike, Remember Jones hopes to put you back on the dance floor feeling your best, most authentic self.

After losing over 200lbs ten years ago and staying on top of it every day since, Remember Jones understands the struggles that come with one's body image, especially amidst a pandemic that kept us inside and isolated for months. 

"Having to stay at home through most of 2020 affected my body and mind more than I could have ever imagined," says Remember Jones. "Now that things are opening up again, I am embracing all of the weight I put on last year and hoping to send a body positive message to all of my fellow people who go through it. You look good no matter how you rock it!"

Put on your favorite pair of pants (or an exclusive "fat jeans" t-shirt now available here) and immerse yourself in the supportive, loving & bright world of “fat jeans,” out on all platforms.

There's much more to come from Remember Jones. Keep up via his official Facebook & Instagram, and listen now on Spotify & Apple Music.
