Absolutely unveils live version and video of “I Just Don’t Know You Yet,” recorded during NYC concert.
UK artist Absolutely returns with a compelling live rendition of her viral track “I Just Don’t Know You Yet,” recorded at the Brooklyn Paramount Theatre in June. The performance took place during her North American tour with fellow alt-pop artist Banks. Along with the audio release, fans can now experience the accompanying live video capturing this memorable moment.
A rising name in the alt-pop space, Absolutely channels intense emotional resonance in this live version. Originally produced by Dave Hamelin—known for collaborations with Beyoncé and 070 Shake—the studio recording drew attention with its dramatic piano hits, textured sonic layers, and soulful vocals. The live interpretation builds on that sound while offering a stripped-back intimacy only possible in a concert setting.
This release follows growing demand from fans who had a preview of the track during Absolutely’s recent tour. As she performed the song live, its emotional impact was clear. One standout moment occurred in Arizona, where a performance of the then-unreleased song earned her a rousing standing ovation. Footage from that night went viral on TikTok, sparking wider interest in the track’s official release.
“It’s apropos that Absolutely shares a live version of the viral single after her quickly growing fanbase clamored for the song’s official release last month.”
Listeners can now stream “I Just Don’t Know You Yet (Live)” and view the performance from Brooklyn via Epic Records. The studio version remains available for those looking to revisit the original production.
