There is nothing predictable about the remarkable rise of Brisbane, Australia native Jaguar Jonze, moniker for musician-artist Deena Lynch. Her success stems from hard work, passion, and drive, and Jaguar Jonze’s second EP - the transcendent, indie-pop ANTIHERO (out April 16, 2021 via Nettwerk Records) - is a testament to that. In March 2020, Deena contracted COVID-19, and because of her industrious nature and love for making music, she continued to record the vocals for the entire EP while in hospital care. Hospitalized for 40 days, Deena says, “I was so worried about my health and career. I had a fever for five weeks straight, and excruciating chest pains, and the music industry was completely decimated. For weeks, I had no voice; I couldn’t sing, and for months I couldn’t stand up or walk for too long. My mental health suffered after prolonged periods of isolation, confinement, quarantine, and the uncertainty of it all. But, I’ve been through a lot in life and have always tried to see the silver lining and be positive.” Determined to continue to do that, she made this EP.
