Since the early 1990s, keyboard player Jessica Lauren has been a familiar part of London's alternative music scene. Jessica's keyboard skills have augmented the live performances and studio recordings of world renowned artists such as Jean Carne, Tom Browne, Dexter Wansel, Japan's United Future Organization,... Her previous Freestyle album 'Jessica Lauren Four' (2012) highlighted Jessica's minimalist approach, something rare and refreshing in the jazz world: she instills her compositions and playing with a refined sense of space which makes her music as much about what she doesn't play as what she does. Jessicas' amazing skill for writing simple, understated yet superbly memorable and catchy hooks remains undiminished. Her new album 'Almería' on Freestyle Records is fun and thoughtful. Each track explores a different aspect of world music and latin jazz and can easily switch from Brazil to Turkey and anywhere in between. https://jessica-lauren.bandcamp.com/ www.nessradio.com
