Review: 'Jess Thristan'
'From Me To You'   

-  Label: 'Better Than Cake Records'
-  Genre: 'Pop' -  Release Date: '27th November '16'

Our Rating:
In the run up to Christmas, it seems that these days you can't move for cover versions of classic songs which have been slowed down and peeled back to just piano or guitar.

Such is the case with new single 'From Me To You' from fantastic female vocalist and songwriter Jess Thristan. With a couple of EPs and singles already under her belt, she is now ramping up to the release of her first EP early next year, and this single is one of the first signposts in the ground to that destination.

Having heard Thristan's original work, part of me feels it's a shame that she's decided on a cover this close to her first album release. Apparently it's the only one on the album, which is great news, but it seems odd not to showcase her songwriting so close to the release.

However, this particular cover version is particularly beautiful, and benefits from the familiar lyrics and melodies allowing you to focus simply on how great Thristan's vocal is. Roll on the album.
