Jamie Woon Making Time

Jamie Woon will release a long-anticipated follow-up to his 2011 critically-acclaimed debut Mirrorwriting this year. First song, Sharpness, had its first play in Pharrell Williams's own radio show on Beats 1 radio.

Two songs, Skin and Forgive was played on Benji B's show on BBC Radio 1. DJ revealed that the album is called Making Time and it will be released later in 2015. You can hear the songs (in a limited period of time) here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b064xgqj

Jamie is currently signed to PMR Records, the record label associated with Disclosure and Jessie Ware.

The UK singer and producer will release Making Time on November 6 via PMR Records.

The album features contributions from folk singer and guitarist Willy Mason on ‘Celebration’, London singer-songwriter Royce Wood Junior on ‘Lament’ and Robin Hannibal of Rhye and Quadron on the previously unveiled ‘Sharpness’, while co-production across the album comes from Lexxx.

“Each project takes as long as it takes,” said Woon by way of explanation for the record’s long gestation. “It’s quite common for me to start a song and then sit on it for two years before I finish it. I used to feel a lot of guilt about how long things take, but I’ve made peace with that. Part of the reason this record took so long is that I wanted to feel like a new person, releasing a new record.”

After unveiling ‘Sharpness’ and ‘Thunder’ (which aired on Gilles Peterson’s radio show at the weekend and is available here http://stagedoor.fm/2015/09/20/audio-jamie-woon-thunder/ ), Woon shared a live version of ‘Message’. Download of the track is available with the album pre-order.
