Mixtape (Vinyl)

Jess Ribeiro’s Mixtape is a collection of abandoned pathways, parallel timelines, maybes and what-ifs recorded with Michael Vince Moin (Tram Cops), Jesse Williams, John Castle, James Seymour and Jeremy Toy. Over eight demos and B-sides previously left on the cutting floor, she sings in her signature cinematic style.

Evoking teenage memories, smoking cigarettes in the woods after dusk, late-night sorrow, and the moment someone you’ve spent a lifetime waiting for arrives, these songs represent the end of one chapter and the promise of something new. Set against breezy guitars, rollicking drums and nostalgic synthesisers, her economical prose conjures up entire worlds within a few words, saying the most while saying the least.
