Rachel Jane Waits No More

Orphan No More is excited to release the new single from RACHEL JANE, ‘Waiting For A Change’ (produced by Joshua Luke Smith). This new, dynamic, high energy offering showcases an honesty from the young songstress that evolves into an anthem of courage, perseverance, and strength, in the midst of frustration and delay.

She says of the record “This song came out of a season where I learned that even when you feel so ready to do all that you feel born to do, it’s not necessarily going to happen when you want it to. This song is for anyone needing encouragement in a time of waiting and growing in patience. Keeping holding on and pressing in, breakthrough can happen in a moment.”

With soul-bearing vocals and more passion than ever, her new EP ‘The Mountain’ will be released in July 2017, showcasing a maturity, vulnerability and open-hearted honesty that has become of Rachel Jane since her debut.

RACHEL JANE : Back of the Wind.   (www.onmmusic.com)

“Music is exactly where I belong, I want my songs to bring a sense of fullness and hope” says Rachel. Growing up singing in church, this 19 year old singer/songwriter is naturally infused with gospel and soul rhythms as well R&B and pop influences. Her 4 track EP has just been released by independent record label, Orphan No More. The first song, ‘Rise’, has also been released as a single. Looking at everything that new life can bring, Rachel produces a strong performance, backed by pounding drums and powerful vocals. ‘Awake My Soul’ has similar rhythms to ‘Rise’ and gives a tribal feel to the song, at times. Vocally, Rachel reminded me of Ellie Goulding and Florence Welch, a thought supported by my son. My favourite track has to be ‘Come Away’. It’s a smoother song that focusses on God talking to one of His children, and encouraging them to see the light. I loved the words “My love is overflowing for you, even though your heart is shattered”. Finally, those familiar rhythms return to accompany ‘Freedom’. Here, Rachel sings of breaking free from the chains that bind you. All 4 songs have a encouraging, positive message, and the overall production is very good. Looking to make her mark in the Christian market, this is more than an encouraging debut from Rachel Jane.   8/10.
