(Jessica
Chaz)
Hot on the heels of the recent successful
release of her single, "Answer",
Durban-born/Canada-based popular singer Jessica Chaz released her debut 6 track
EP (Dreamin') on June 1, 2018.
Chaz’s releases come from Moodlab Music -
an independent label founded by Jessica and her sister Vanessa Moodley. The
label has been hard at work with the objective of not only bringing fresh and
authentic sounds to music lovers, but also to provide more opportunities for
female artists.
Commenting on the inspiration behind the
record, Jessica said: “The inspiration behind Dreamin', is about the journey of fulfilling a dream. It didn't
start out as the plan in general but when we heard the theme of each song and
listened to the sentiment of the society and the people around us, it made
sense that the now title track Dreamin'
became one of my favourites and the title of the EP. Dreamin' talks about the struggle that I went through and that we
heard so many people around us talking about - the struggle of deciding to take
a chance on a dream,” she said.
“I feel like because I listened to an eclectic
mix of music growing up, you will hear are a few musical influences on this EP.
Ranging from country, to R n' B to Reggae to Pop. I grew up listening to gospel
music, Stevie Wonder, Celine Dion, Queen, Cliff Richard, John Denver, Elvis
Presley and the list goes on and I think that is evident in my music,” said
Jessica.
There are 6 tracks on the EP. It was
co-produced by Jessica Chaz and Vanessa Moodley, and mixed by Greg Bedford in
Durban. The album was recorded in South Africa, Canada and the US
The Dreamin
EP is now available at all major digital stores including iTunes, Google Play,
