Memoirs (part ii)

Jaelee Small has written down her collection of roaming thoughts, short stories and soulful vocal harmony drenched monologues. 

Memoirs (part ii) is part of a harmony-soaked concept album through a timeline of a teenage youth. 

Painting a picture of her memories through catchy choruses and memorable melodies containing personal influences ranging from the well played vinyl of The Beach Boys, Pink Floyd and The Who to Aretha Franklin, Emeli Sandé and Haim. 

A wide ‘Mixtape of Emotion’ resulting in a delightful blend of emotive pop and soulful rock. 

With such diverse influences, her music transcends genres and has a unique sound and feel which is instantly recognisable, leaving a lasting impression. The impressive vocal arrangements add an extra level of sophistication to her songwriting. 

Jaelee’s musical journey guides the listener through the process of her self-discovery and the search for her own identity. 

Maybe we find out who she is.
