Joleneosoul

Jolene is a South West based artist fusing traditional neo-soul sounds with the lo-fi hip hop influence of alternative R&B. Jolene first rose to prominence through the BrappTV app, where her freestyles gained her an audience that led to the release of her own music, as well as an opportunity to perform for BBC Introducing in the West.​

2020 saw the release of her tracks ‘Everything’ and ‘Down Low’ on the Issa Vibe label, showcasing Jolene’s angelic vocals over laid-back smoky beats. ‘Everything’ received radio play on BBC 1xtra from arguably one of the UK’s biggest champions of the alternative R&B sound, Jamz Supernova. Her most recent single 'Get It Together' not only scored Amazon’s #1 Hot New Releases in R&B, but had her featured as Artist of the Week on BBC Introducing in The West.

Jolene’s talents as an artist stem from a lifelong love for music, with much of her time growing up spent digging for hip hop laden with jazz and soul samples leading to the discovery of artists like J Dilla and the Soulquarians which influences the sound you hear today.
