Three years ago JESSICA graced us with the gorgeous album ‘With Reverie’, reviewed by us here. She is back with a new track ‘And In The Quiet There Is Desire’, an achingly beautiful track that seems to float like a gossamer thread through the skies, borne on a wandering piano and strings. JESSICA’s voice is a sonic salve – reminding me of the delivery, at times of Dusty Springfield – that drifts through the instrumentation at a distance, majestic and ethereal, almost ghostly.

The lyrics reflect the dreamy hypnotic tones:

Right before
the dawn
there’s a place
a place on Earth
and in this quiet
there is desire

The accompanying video is a simple colour-infused close-up of JESSICA performing: personal and intense and immersive. As with her previous material, the track is not so much a song as an emotion: a recorded moment or feeling that seeps into the consciousness and creates a deep state trance:

‘And In The Quiet There Is Desire’ is out now and available through the link below:
