Hailing from East London and raised on a diet of soul and R&B, Cherie Jones made her entrance to the scene in early 2015, uploading her debut track, “Deep,” to SoundCloud. Having signed to independent label 37 Adventures, she went on to release her debut EP, Indulge, in April of 2015, professionally going by her surname. Collaborating with a host of producers such as A.K. Paul, Brunelle, Raffertie, and XL resident Rodaidh McDonald, the release further showcased Jones’ earnest, powerful and intense vocals while combining organic acoustic elements and resonant, warm guitar work with prominent, compelling, and ethereal electronics and lush, sharp, hook-laden choruses. Following this, she then went on to perform an acoustic version of the EP title track on the BBC’s Later…with Jools Holland before releasing the track “Hoops,” produced by emerging talents Josh Record and XO. The track has been compared to acts such as the xx and Lykke Li, and its style has been dubbed “digital soul.” ~ Rob Wacey
London singer, Jones has delivered a feel-good summer anthem with her new offering “Melt”.’ The 25-year-old songstress has shared the sweet new song that’s honestly healing enough to soothe a sunburn. “Melt” is taken from her forthcoming debut album New Skin, which is slated for a release later this year. Until then, listen to “Melt” below. Speaking on the track, JONES said: “It’s about when two people are together, whether it’s love or infatuation, sometimes it feels as though they’ve molded into one. Whether that be for a lifetime or a moment. It’s about forgiveness, acceptance and loyalty.”
Jones: Melt
Jones: Melt Lyrics:
Whatever happens. You know we’re gonna repair
No matter what happens
You know we’ve got something rare
We started with nothing, grew into something
We’ve got the heat
To last a lifetime, this is the right time
Trust in me
Take it from someone, who’s not a tough one, oh
No matter what happens
No matter what happens
We’ve got the heat. Melt with me
You know we’ve got the heat
Melt with me
Whatever happens
You know we’ve got something real
No matter what happens
You know I’m gonna watch you near
So get over here
We started with nothing, grew into something
We’ve got the heat
To last a lifetime, this is the right time
Trust in me
Over the motions, this isn’t over, oh
No matter what happens
No matter what happens
We’ve got the heat
Melt with me
You know we’ve got the heat
Melt with me, oh
Come melt with me. Come melt with me
Come melt, come melt, come melt with me
Come melt, come melt, come melt with me
Come melt, come melt, come melt with me
You know we’ve got the heat, oh
Melt with me Yeah, we’ve got the heat
So melt with me
Oh, you know we’ve got the heat, yeah
(Melt with me) So melt with me
(Melt with me) Oh oh, we’ve got the heat
(Melt with me) So come on melt with me
(Melt with me)
Come on, melt with me. Come on, melt with me.
Come on, melt with me. Come on, melt with me.
Mmm, mmm.
