Thank you so much for showcasing this! Just a little note for listeners. This song is actually a part of the all-original soundtrack I’ve written for my debut novel, String Bridge. The album will be released November 1st, the same day as the book. :o)
please send me your new songs. they sound great.

Jessica Bell is incredibly multi-talented. I don’t know what I’m looking forward to the most–her book or the soundtrack release. How often does an author release their own soundtrack for their book.? I see big success on the horizon for Jessica come this November. This song is some good sounding stuff!

Please send me your new songs Jess. They sound great!
Well Jess has talent, love to hear some more. Great production value, and fantastic voice, reminds me of Shirley Manson.
