Jess Chalker

London-based Australian, Grammy-credited singer & songwriter Jess Chalker is set to release her stunning debut solo full length album Hemispheres on November 5 via her own imprint 528 Records. Today, she shares her latest single, “Cynical.” The moody, alt-pop gem sees Chalker's vocals blaze atop sultry guitars, with brooding piano lines that underpin themes of seduction and conflicted relationships.

Previous album release 'Stupid Trick' (along with its stunning video clip) is currently one of the most downloaded tracks on Australian community radio, with teaser single, ‘Don’t Fight It’ charting at #1 on Hype Machine. Both were called out by The Guardian in its list of best new Australian songs.
