Jennifer Left has a story to tell you. This young songbird originally from Newcastle but now the seaside town of Brighton is inspired by the songs that raised her, she sings about the stories she writes. Her undeniable talents lie in balladry so breathtakingly visceral, yet perfectly balanced with infectious up-beat instrumentation and menacing bittersweet tones.a With her debut long-player planned for release later this year, new single, Black Dog takes in a multitude of influences ranging from old-time swing to The Kinks, and on to more contemporary artists like Feist and Sarah Blasko. There has long been a font of great female singers, here, Left’s radiant tones rest on deep and extensive foundations, and with heavy radio rotation from BBC6, Radio 2 & Q Radio, Black Dog will undoubtedly assure her position in the premier league.
