Jayne’s love of jazz and soul reverberates through her songs as she delivers the first track from her forthcoming EP. Pass The Test (Release Date TBC)

This track is a great demonstration of the power of collaboration with writer/producer Danny Lanham and singer/songwriter Abby Butler, lending their collective songwriting skills. Additional breaks and beats are supplied by artist/producer 40hurtz and mixed by Ben Wanders.

“I’m a sunshine girl! I love the summer despite my pasty complexion and I just wanted to write something light and upbeat, in the middle of winter it was nice to create the fantasy”
