#77 Jessie Reid - Whole Heart
Indie-folk artist Jessie Reid has released her first single of 2021, Whole Heart , pairing her soulful, emotive melody with a beautifully acoustic accompaniment. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Ben Howard, Lucy Rose and Andy Mckee, the captivating strings and layered harmonies embraced in Whole Heart are distinctive and unique.
Having previously supported the likes of Brooke Bentham, Seafret and Dan Owen, Jessie’s talent is profound, confirmed when she was shortlisted for the Glastonbury 2019 Emerging Talent competition. Jessie has performed countless times for Sofar Sounds and her impressive work has been recognised by the likes of BBC Introducing and BBC Radio Wales. Check out her Spotlight Session for BBC Introducing here.
Whole Heart’s lyrics reflect upon a distant love, ‘miles away’ - a meaningful sentiment in a time where so many are unable to see their family, friends and loved ones.
This stunning new single is available on Spotify and all streaming platforms. Check it out below.
