A hidden Jem!
The briefest of listens to Welch-born singer-songwriter Jem's February cover of Coldplay's "Yellow" is ample evidence that we have something remarkable on our hands. Dripping with sensuality, its slithering vocals are enough to make one turn off the road in order to avoid an accident. Jem's new album Down to Earth (a long-overdue follow-up to her 2004 debut Finally Woken), certainly features that brand of thrillingly unrestrained sexuality, but also manages to combine musical styles from banjo to ballad to Brazilian beat, and is one of our happier discoveries of the Spring.
