Today, alt-pop provocateur Jessica Winter releases her sensational new single “Big Star”, the fifth single taken from her upcoming debut album, My First Album, which is set for release this Friday 11th July. The music video for “Big Star” was directed by Roger Spy and is available to watch below.
On “Big Star”, Jessica creates a soon-to-be iconic cult pop anthem.
Jessica explains “This song sums up the album for me, perhaps it’s a reminder to anyone on their quest for fame and fortune to remember that you are who you are, and you don’t have to be on a huge stage with loads of people applauding or liking you on socials to have real value in this life. Perhaps it’s an exposé on living a life in this industry which is all about making it and all about your success moments, but we have success moments every day depending on how you look at it. The way I constructed My First Album wasn’t with the intention of major cosigns and celebrity, I wanted to create something authentically me that allowed for exposure and vulnerability, and I believe I have achieved that.”
Jessica will play multiple in-store live dates to celebrate the release of My First Album, starting with Rough Trade East in London this Friday followed by shows in cities including Brighton, Bristol, Leeds, Liverpool and her hometown, Portsmouth. All dates and details can be found on her website.
