“Ware’s two albums to date have drawn links between after-dark bass music and stately soul, [...], her songs like “Wildest Moments” and “Pieces” can feel like holding back tears until you feel your front door safely close behind you.” – The Fader

ABOUT ‘MIDNIGHT’

Million-selling, award-winning vocalist and songwriter Jessie Ware shared her new single ‘Midnight’ on July 28. Premiered on BBC Radio 1, the single is her first in two years and comes via iconic London label PMR. ‘Midnight’ is taken from Jessie’s upcoming third studio album due for release later this year on PMR/Island Records.

‘Midnight’ was co-written by Kiah Victoria, Jordan Thomas and Carrius Gold, three upcoming songwriters from London and co-produced by Carrius Gold and Pop Wansel (Rihanna, Alicia Keys, Nicki Minaj) and demonstrates Jessie’s unapologetic fight for a relationship, soaked with visceral anger and tension throughout. Jessie’s draw for collaboration on the new album saw her writing and recording with artists including Felix and Hugo White (The Maccabees), Kid Harpoon, Ed Sheeran and long-term collaborator and close friend Benny Blanco.

It’s been three years since the release of Jessie Ware’s second album Tough Love, the critically-embraced follow up to her landmark debut Devotion. Her new album is formed around themes of family, love, tumultuous relationships and motherhood. Earlier this week Jessie announced a live residency at London’s Islington Assembly Hall on the 4th, 5th, 7th and 8th of September which sold out in minutes.
