The day has finally arrived! British pop/dance artist JASMINE IS’ debut album HEAR is out now on all digital streaming platforms. Listen here.

To mark the occasion, JASMINE is also releasing a 3rd single ‘Passion’ (following ‘Love of Money‘ and ‘Miss You While I’m Sleeping‘), along with a music video for the track. Produced by Philip Larsen (Kylie Minogue, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry), this uplifting, soulful pop groove crushes on living life with empathy and compassion.

“Compassion is something that is truly lacking in the world right now,” says JASMINE IS. “I wanted to write a song that conveyed this message but at the same time, needed it to feel hopeful.”

JASMINE and Philip had a somewhat unique working relationship when recording her new album HEAR. Being intensely private and avoiding phone and video calls, JASMINE’s preference was to communicate only via messaging and the odd voice note while sending files backwards and forwards for the first year.

“We were very much a lockdown production,” says Philip. “We are on different continents as it is, so it probably wouldn’t have worked in person in any case. The fun part was that we communicated mostly via WhatsApp, exchanging short fire messages with vocal ideas, inspirations and music demos. Almost all our communication was musical by nature and that meant for a flurry of ideas on each song. And in the early stages when we were just finding our feet, we could try our own ideas out in full, before sharing them. This is a great way to do things, as there is no fear of embarrassment when an early idea needs a bit of development before being shared with your co-writer. I don’t think we would even be able to work in the same room now as it would upset the flow and creativity!”

HEAR is available now on Spotify, Apple Music/iTunes, and other digital retailers and streaming services worldwide. For more information, please visit jasmine.is.
