UK singer-songwriter JK Jerome continues the rollout of his forthcoming debut EP with ‘I Just Want To Soar’, a beautifully expansive indie release that marks another confident step forward in his evolving sound. Following ‘Profanity’ and ‘Any Moment Now’, the new single introduces richer production, blending shimmering guitars with atmospheric synths to create his most ambitious recording to date.
Centred on the realities of chasing musical dreams, ‘I Just Want To Soar’ reflects on the highs and disappointments of life in a band before embracing the freedom that comes with forging a new creative path. Rather than dwelling on what has been left behind, the song celebrates perseverance, artistic fulfilment and the joy of creating for its own sake.
The track also signals a shift away from JK Jerome’s earlier acoustic foundations, incorporating textured electronics and cinematic production that point towards an exciting new artistic direction.
Already recognised by BBC Introducing Sussex & Surrey, Amazing Radio and the wider UK independent music scene, JK Jerome has built an impressive career that includes performances on BBC Radio 2 with Dermot O’Leary, festival appearances at BST Hyde Park, Boardmasters and the Isle of Wight Festival, plus more than one million Spotify streams. ‘I Just Want To Soar’ feels like the perfect launchpad for the next chapter of his journey.
