Pearls offers a funk-infused disco that revels in the euphoria of dancing under the light of a mirror ball.


Pearls is a record that doesn’t take itself too seriously but demands you to have a dance,” Jessie says of the new single.

“It’s inspired by divas like Donna Summer, Evelyn Champagne King, Teena Marie and Chaka Khan and I guess attempts to show – in lightness – all the hats I try to wear (usually at the same time).

“It’s the second song you will hear from my collaboration with Stuart Price and Coffee – with the wonderful addition of Sarah Hudson – and hopefully gives you a taste of the fun we have working together.”

Speaking on the follow up to the brilliant 2020 release What’s Your Pleasure?, Jessie says the new album is a culmination of a decade of exploring who she is.

That! Feels Good! stems from over 10 years of understanding who I am, and who I enjoy being as an artist and the thrill of performance.”

Pearls follows Free Yourself, the first infectiously danceable offering from the upcoming LP.

That! Feels Good! releases on April 28.
