Singer-songwriter Jack Horton continues his deeply personal journey through music with “Never Know Why (feat. Vesper Stockwell)”, the fourth single from his upcoming EP Imperfections. A love song built on contrast and connection, the track begins in raw simplicity and swells into a cinematic crescendo, showcasing the power of two distinct voices merging into one unforgettable harmony.
A duet between Horton and rising vocalist Vesper Stockwell, Never Know Why explores the mystery of love—the pull to be with someone even when reason fails. Vesper’s crystalline vocals intertwine beautifully with Horton’s gravel-tinged delivery, creating an emotional tension that slowly gives way to lush orchestration and full symphonic weight. It’s a sonic and lyrical meditation on longing, vulnerability, and the inexplicable bonds that define us.
Originally from Oregon, Jack Horton’s path to music has been anything but conventional. After relocating to Tokyo in his late teens, he supported himself through law school by playing in piano bars on weekends. What followed was a successful career as an attorney, government official, and tech founder—but music always remained close to his heart.
Now, drawing on his rich life experience, Horton returns to songwriting with a rare sense of perspective and purpose. A classically trained pianist, his compositions are emotionally resonant, weaving detailed storytelling with cinematic soundscapes.
Never Know Why is the latest chapter in that return—a testament to love, contrast, and the beauty in imperfection.
