Background
Upon its release, Jessie Murph said of the song:
"How Could You" is the most honest and vulnerable song I've ever released – let alone ever written. I wrote it about a traumatic experience I had about a year ago. To me this song is what making music is all about. Not only has writing and releasing this song been incredibly therapeutic for me personally, but seeing other people share their experiences, good or bad, that make this song relatable and therapeutic to them is truly the greatest gift I could ask for.[1]
