This week, we're scratching The Itch for future deja vu! Jutes' album Ladybug made our top 20 of 2023, and his upcoming follow-up Sleepyhead is shaping up as a contender for 2024! We had to have this prolific songwriter on to discuss his shifting sounds, the challenges of being an independent artist, and balancing his desire for a quiet, private life with the public nature of his relationship with Demi Lovato. Our chat with Jutes was insightful and enjoyable, and as a surprise, we bet you won't guess who he once played pickup basketball with. Enjoy!
