It’s about the relief of the relationship breaking up while still having an an ache, a bruise left from the toll of it ending”, says Jaz.
The catchy single begins with a bittersweet melancholy piano riff, leading through to an intensely crafted driving synth beat, an intimate emotionally held together vocal with sobering lyrics which get you right in the gut. Her refreshing take on original music instantly captivates and intrigues.
The singer-songwriter draws influence from the likes of Banks, Tove Lo, James Blake and Bon Iver, enabling her to deliver a spellbinding, yet honest and confessional style of music that explores the intricacies of various production techniques.
Jaz has made huge steps in her development as an artist since attending SOLE Music Academy where she has worked on her new direction from being a folk singer-songwriter through to exploring a more electronic pop sound.

With Jaz’s music career starting to heat up, be sure to keep an eye out for an upcoming single’s lonely, ache & LA from her upcoming debut EP ache due out on the 19th of Nov. Set to intricate melodies and harmonies, Jaz’s music will have you hooked from the very first beat as she recites stories about the ups and downs of life in her early twenties.
