"Solo singer/songwriter Jessica Spencer has a voice that could upstage brass bands, but it’s her talent for sparse melodic invention and rich piano arrangement that she uses to distinguish herself. Spanning the ivory from keys one to eighty-eight, the swinging arpeggios, hanging harmonies and rocking bass chords are as unpredictable as they are intuitive, complimenting her vocal lyricism perfectly. Lonely, lovely and very human. www.myspace.com/jessicaspencermusic"
"But it was when she sang that you really had to sit up and take notice. Emanating from this young leaf of a girl was voice that had such a sense of drama, such power, that you found yourself not quite believing it was her."
"This is a brooding, atmospheric romp that never gets out of control, her voice managing to be somehow emotive but also detached. Clockwork, a song which Jessica introduces as being "About how we all hate work," is haunting and contained, whilst Fallen releases the inner jazz with added handclaps. With drums and bass complementing her tender yet powerful sound Jessica Spencer is growing in stature and ability. A pleasure. And not a guilty one."
