Jessica Winter from London is making a name for herself as one of the most distinctive and emotionally resonant voices in contemporary pop music. With her latest single “Big Star,” released on July 8, she delivers a catchy pop tune that also carries a powerful message wrapped in both sparkle and grit. This track is the fifth and final single from her upcoming debut album, "My First Album"
“Big Star” explores themes of self-worth and the illusions of fame, combining bold electronic sounds with heartfelt lyrics. Winter describes the song as a reflection of her entire album, emphasizing that actual value in life doesn’t come from public recognition or social media popularity. It’s about the struggles of those working hard to be recognized in a world that often prioritizes superficial success. The release is accompanied by a striking music video directed by Roger Spy, known for his quirky style. The video complements the song’s introspective nature with a blend of humor and sincerity, making it a perfect fit for a piece that challenges the idea of performing for attention.
Rather than seeking the spotlight, “Big Star” represents a quieter form of rebellion. In a music scene often obsessed with showmanship, Jessica is prioritizing genuine connections with her audience. She aims to offer something that truly reflects who she is, and with “Big Star,” her authentic energy shines brightly. "My First Album" will be released on July 11, and its focus is not on climbing music charts but on fostering authentic connections. Winter captures this sentiment perfectly when she says she wanted to share something that is genuinely her, evoking a warm and engaging vibe throughout her music.
