In The Spotlight

John-Robert – “Where Do You Wanna Go?”

Hailing from Edinburg as John-Robert Rimel, this singer and songwriter grew up surrounded by Appalachian folk and country music. Initially he was discovered by Ellen DeGeneres and invited to perform on her TV show aged 13. Although he got a full scholarship for Berklee College of Music, he moved to Los Angeles instead. He played various festivals and supported Liam Gallagher and Leon Bridges. Inspired by Sufjan Stevens, Chicago and Jon Bellion, he released his debut “Adeline” in 2019.

Inspired by the moment he was dropped by his record label, the title track of his latest EP is a pivot of his earlier folk roots and champions his freedom to choose rather than being forced to follow industry expectations. Discovering a new jazzy sound, he creates a balmy and silky-smooth atmosphere that gently strokes our ear drums. With the magical sounds of a mellow rhythm, soft guitars and the sultry sax of OGI, it’s his lush vocals that make this velvety tune truly unforgettable.

In The Spotlight

Jackie Evans – “Leave You”

Based in New York City, this singer, songwriter and pianist grew up involved in music. She studied theatre at SUNY New Paltz where she performed in productions like Avenue Q and Into The Woods. Honing her craft, she worked as a pianist on cruise ships and as a singer in theme parks. Since focusing on her original material she’s played venues like The Moroccan Lounge and Sofar Sounds. Inspired by Billy Joel, Carole King and Sara Bareilles, she debuted with “Growing Old” in 2024.

Originally written as a poem, her new single is a tribute to friendship and the meaningful relationships that she has built. Apart from her authentic and soulful voice, she lets her acoustic piano tell the story. Joined by a dynamic percussion and a swelling organ, it’s the melodic flair of the spellbinding keys that sonically narrate the personal tale. And with the soothing quality of her enchanting vocals, this magical, 70s-inspired groove is a polished morsel of genuine auditory warmth.
