Jess Chambers - Hopeful Dreamer Single Review

29 Aug 2011 // A review by Miss_Jukebox

Just as the first buds reveal themselves in our gardens at this time of year, and as the frosty mornings cede to a gentle sun, Jess Chambers has released her single ‘Hopeful Dreamer’ to mark the beginning of what is sure to be a beautiful Spring season.

‘Hopeful Dreamer’ is immaculate in its execution. Chambers has perfectly nuanced the instrumentation to match her tender vocals and charming lyrics. It is a lullaby that trickles into your ears and would console you at your most defeated times. 

Her voice is subtle like the shine of a crescent moon. It is tender and delicate and floats carelessly around your head in ‘Hopeful Dreamer’. This is just an appetiser from her upcoming second album Desire due for release on the 19th September 2011. Jess Chambers is an artist you will want to savour for a long time. With a lead single as charismatic as ‘Hopeful Dreamer’ it will be difficult to not be smitten by Chambers or her upcoming album.  

-Janise.

27 Nov 2012 // by Miss_Jukebox
Pop-rock trio Ninja Monkey have released their debut EP Anger Management, a little taste of their full-throttle rock’n’roll drive. The EP consists of the very classic groove of ‘These Eyes’ with prodding guitar riffs and pounds of the drums, encrusted with dense rock harmonies.
