jamie woon's debut album 'mirrorwriting' has been three years in the making... and a lifetime in the writing. these are twelve pitch-perfect gems that combine forward-thinking production with beautifully crafted songs; a sonic support-system that frames and holds woon's luminous voice in all the right places. it's intimate without being obvious, emotional without being syrupy and honest without being confessional, where the basic touchstones of human emotion get a fresh and soulful airing. 'mirrorwriting' is a debut that's ripe for that transition from niche to mainstream. it's a deeply personal record that draws from r'nb, folk, '80s and '90s soul and pop, uk bass culture and the blues. it digs into emotions we all feel and sends them spinning, just-recognisable, back to us.
