Freestyle Records' Jessica Lauren (Four) drops her long awaited single as a precursor to her full length self titled album slated for a mid April release. Jessica has been a keyboard player on the London scene since the early 1990s and we remember in particular her unleashing a superb single for Soul Jazz ("Serengetti") back in 93! Since then Jess has supported everyone from Jean Carne, United Future Organisation, Dexter Wansel and even James Mason. She is also a core member of space jazz outfit Emanative and a regular feature of the long running weekly live Jazz Meet Sessions. The A Side kicks off with an enormous keyboard riff before soul legend Jocelyn Brown kicks in with a soul-infused bluesy vocal performance. Lashings of smouldering Hammond organ aid Miss Brown with the gospel-driven "I Believe", which eases us towards the run-out groove and the A-Side. On the flip "White Mountain" ventures into atmospheric and tasteful instrumental jazz territory, with distinctive keys and hypnotic double bass playing from Andrew Kremer.
