Everything Producer Jack Antonoff Touches Turns To Gold

Maren Morris Welcome to the End

In the old Greek myth of “King Midas and the Golden Touch,” Dionysus, The God of Revelry,  grants the King the power to turn everything he touches into gold. Bergen County producer Jack Antonoff—he of the nine Grammy Awards and three years in a row as “Producer Of The Year”—has spun straw into gold with his knob-turning for Taylor Swift, Lana Del Ray and his own band Bleachers.

Enter Texas singer-songwriter Maren Morris. She was a star before she met Antonoff but the pairing of such successful entities has resulted in “Welcome To The End.” It’s the second single from the upcoming benefit compilation of All Things Go, the DC/NYC/Toronto indie music fest. Its beneficiary is The Ally Coalition, founded 12 years ago by Antonoff and fashion designer Rachel Antonoff, and dedicated to bettering the lives of LGBTQ youth.
