LUV MUSIC - Jessie Ware


I was introduced to Jessie Ware last summer on SBTRKT's self-titled debut album, and am happy to find her voice back in my ears again. Her single Wildest Moments is stunning.  It is pop at its purest, complete with catchy hooks and soaring sultry vocals. Check out the video as well- a fantastic study in how simple can be so striking.
Jessie Ware's other recently released single Sweet Talk was recently reviewed here by Pitchfork. (I'm pretty sure reviewer Mark Richardson's synopsis could not be more spot-on) and her new album, Devotion hits next Monday, 8/20/12.  Indulge in some pop at its finest (and some ice cream while you're at it), and have a wonderful week!
