LANEWAY FESTIVAL PRESENTS
JESSIE WARE INTIMATE CLUB SHOWS

"Devotion quietly works its magic, a genuinely individual statement by an artist who didn't expect to become a pop star, but might struggle to stop it happening anyway - after all, the groove is in her heart.“
The Guardian****

"Jessie Ware will be the star her songs deserve...Devotion is a record filled with moments that bring you to your knees. 8/10"
NME

"Devotion marries her natural gift with throbbing instrumentation that breathes life into every single turn of phrase or sensitive vocal embellishment 8.5."
Pitchfork

'If we’re talking pop singers, Ware could be one of the greatest."
Consequence of Sound ****

As one of the UK's break-out stars in 2012, Brixton's Jessie Ware is poised to do the same in Australia.

After guesting on high profile tracks like SBTRKT’s ‘Right Thing To Do’, the 27-year-old broke away with her seductive, universally acclaimed debut, Devotion, produced by The Invisible’s Dave Okumu, Kid Harpoon and Julio Bashmore. Raised on a diet of hip-hop and soul, Jessie counts Lauryn Hill, Chaka Khan and Sade as influences, best witnessed on the smooth cut “Running” and downbeat ballad “Wildest Moments” (a real contender for Song of the Year). Her electronic, soulful pop is delightfully restrained (see breakout hit 110%) and in equal parts immediate and classy. No wonder she's a serious contender for this year's Mercury Prize.

Jessie's live shows are as mesmerising are her silky-smooth voice and have sold out across Europe and the US. Don't miss the chance to catch Jessie Ware in an intimate club environment - we're telling you, it might be the last time.
