“Day Is Gone”
is the first single and video from “Heartbreakers” by Phoebe Jean & The Air
Force
+++
“...the
group brought the low-ceilinged room to a sweat.” – New York Times
Baltimore-based hellion Phoebe Jean is a one girl band with an army of sound. Associated
early on with the Baltimore club scene, she is quick to note that “My music is
not electro!” On Heartbreakers, scheduled for release in the US on June 12th via
the French label Lentonia Records and
distributed by Nail Distribution, Phoebe Jean uses more traditional pop
and rock instrumentation such as acoustic piano, guitars and to arrive at a
blend of classic club breaks, soulful funk grooves, and harmonic melodies.
Born and raised in Baltimore, loved and learned in New
York and Paris, Phoebe Jean is
already earning accolades for Heartbreakers in Europe where
features have already come in from respected European publications such as Modzik
and Les
Inrocks and Phoebe Jean’s Heartbreakers
record release party was a packed affair that is still being talked about.
The album’s first single “Day Is Gone” is streaming now. The video for the track was
directed by Phoebe Jean herself and
features cinematography by Sienna
Sheilds and choreography by Love,
Grace O’ Neill. The clip also
features the Shake Off Twinz who
have also been seen with M.I.A. and Rye Rye. Listen
as Phoebe Jean ups the pressure more
and more until she lets it blow off in a massive vocal hook.
As a live act, Phoebe
Jean recently caught
the attention of the New York Times
at NYC’s Lower East Side venue Cake Shop
where writer Io Tillett Wright noted
that “...the group brought the low-ceilinged room to a sweat.” Back above
ground, it’s 102 degrees in Baltimore City and Phoebe Jean is busy tending to her ‘77 Cadillac Seville.
Heartbreakers by Phoebe Jean & The Air
Force is set for release on June 12th. See below for upcoming
live dates. Phoebe Jean is available for interviews. Contact Josh Bloom
