| Miami, FL (April 25, 2024) – With a landmark album that will redefine the boundaries of music storytelling, Jay Wheeler creates a narrative that explores time, choice and destiny with his seventh studio album, “Música Buena, Para Días Malos” (MB / PDM). Released by Dynamic Records, the new album explores the variable outcomes of choices made in the search of love and balance, and will inspire audiences to evaluate the outcomes of choices made through alternative realities. Produced by long-time collaborators Kevin Omar Ortiz (Bones) and Elvin Jesus Roubert Rodríguez (Botlock), among others, the fourteen (14) track collection expands on an individual’s self-discovery, taking listeners through a journey of unwavering emotions. From the album’s opening track, “Admítelo”, to collaborative tracks “Textos Fríos” (ft. Mora), “Maquillaje” (ft. Noreh) and the transformative track “Lo Nuestro” (ft. Wheeler’s wife Zhamira), the songs express the different phases of love, heartbreak, desire, regret and hope. About the meaning of the album, Wheeler expressed, “I feel that ‘Good Music, For Bad Days’ is the best album I’ve made in my entire career, because it demonstrates not only my musical growth, but my personal growth as well. It’s been a long time since music has been made in a way that you can feel it in the depths of your heart.” |
In tandem with the album, Wheeler masterfully depicts decisions made through alternate realities using an avant-garde approach to storytelling through a sci-fi themed video collection. Directed by the creative collective FilmHeads, each visualizer was inspired by techniques used in the blockbuster feature films “Everything Everywhere All at Once” and “Dune” and the popular TV series “Loki”. Each visualizer is meant to create a unique narrative that connects a love story, where the outcome is based on decisions made, and will leave audiences wondering what could have been if different choices were made.

As a preamble to “MB, PDM” , Wheeler released “Historia” and “Otro Más” (Another One). “Historia” narrates a “Jay vs. Jay” battle, where he confronts the echoes of his past and the conflicts moving forward; “Otro Mas” addresses the battles of unrequited love, telling a story of heartbreak, desperation and the conflicts that a person experiences to move forward when love is no longer reciprocated. The singles have surpassed a combined 16.5 million YouTube views and streams.
A two-time Latin GRAMMY® nominee, Jay Wheeler is preparing for his long-awaited “TRAPPii” U.S. arena tour, which will visit major cities in the U.S. Kicking off with 14 dates, the tour will host its opening night at The Theatre @ Madison Square Garden in New York City on June 13, and conclude in Austin, Texas on October 27.
