Two-time Grammy and Billboard Award winner Jonas Myrin has released his new song, “Mountains,” featuring Capitol CMG, available on all streaming platforms starting today, June 24. The Universal Anthem of Hope features string arrangements by the Stockholm Symphony Orchestra and was written by Myrin and Daniel James (Hayley Williams, Paramore). This release follows the recent success of his singles “For The Ones We Love” and “Not Alone” which recently surpassed 9 million global streams.
“I have always believed in the power of music and that a song can inspire and uplift a heart,” says Myrin. “After two years of pandemic and challenges across the world, I feel the message of hope has never been more important than now. ‘Mountains’ is a reminder that no matter what circumstances you face or what you are going through, with faith and love in your heart, anything is possible and even the tallest mountains can be moved.”
In support of the new release, Myrin premiered the official music video for “Mountains” on YouTube this morning. The video was directed by Narses and filmed over a week in the epic landscape of Chihuahua’s Copper Canyon, 6,200 feet above the ground. One of the largest canyons in the world. It presents Myrin on a quest to find the light of faith, only to realize in the end that it was always available to be found in her own heart.
Myrin’s career highlights include writing and co-producing four songs with David Foster on Barbra Streisand’s critically acclaimed 2018 album Walls; co-wrote “Gloria The Gift of Life”, recorded by Andrea Bocelli on his Si collection (the first classical album to reach number 1 in the UNITED STATES and at United Kingdom) and recently featured in the film Fatima; and writing “Together In This,” the title song from Jungle Beat: The Movie,” recorded by Natasha Bedingfield, which has had over 16 million views on TikTok and over a million views on YouTube. The highly sought-after singer and songwriter was the featured artist on Idina Menzel’s reissue of “At This Table,” co-written by Myrin, from her holiday album “A Season of Love,” which became one of the most listened to originals. Christmas songs of 2019; co-written with Nicole Scherzinger, “Victorious,” the closing song of the 2019 World Games at the Special Olympics Abu Dhabi, which was seen by more than 100 million people; and writing “Beautiful Life”, an international hit single for Simon Fuller’s new global music group, NowUnited, which topped streaming charts around the world.
Myrin has also collaborated with Celine Dion, Carole Bayer Sager, Jessica Simpson and many others. Additionally, he has written songs for international icons around the world from Brazil, Japan, Korea, Sweden, Germany, France and the United Kingdom, notably Vanessa Paradis, Gaëtan Roussel, Vanessa da Mata in Tohoshinki, and many others. He launched his music career in the early 2000s assongwriter in London and has since made a profound global impact with 13 chart-topping anthems and winning two Grammys. Most recently, Myrin was in Italy writing with Andrea Bocelli for her upcoming album and is collaborating with Tasha Cobbs Leonard for his next album with Motown Gospel.
