Jensen McRae’s second album, I Don’t Know How But They Found Me!, marks a powerful step forward — a collection of songs shaped by survival, growth, and the quiet strength of hindsight. Known for her piercing lyrics and emotional clarity, McRae now turns her focus to what comes after the storm: resilience, reckoning, and self-possession. Rooted in intimate songwriting and textured arrangements, the album moves confidently between sparse acoustic moments and swelling, full-band anthems. Tracks like “Savannah” and “Let Me Be Wrong” blend tenderness with grit, underscoring McRae’s gift for revealing complex emotions in just a few lines. The title, borrowed from Back to the Future, nods to an imagined future self — guiding, surviving, enduring. McRae wears that symbolism with intent, reflecting on identity, pressure, and the ways we hold ourselves together. It’s a deeply personal record, but never insular. She’s writing from experience, but speaking to something universal.
