Whispering Light - Jesca Hoop
I will walk the road as long as the road goes I will try to dodge the rock the valley throws Revealer, caught a fever We all have a sinking stone And when the road presents a twisting case of fate A meaner eye you need to contemplate The season comes with a reason We all have a setting sun Distance, mark of distance Your burden is your brilliance There’s a vessel, a hidden vessel in the stone
Difference, not indifference Your passion marks you different And you wrestle, and how you wrestle to come to know The whispering light The truth is awful quiet Like it’s whispering at night Can tell you how to Break the fever With light The truth is awful quiet Like whispering in light Can tell you how to And light is less and light is more in some For don’t confuse the weather for the sun Revealer, magic healer And when will your vision come And lightning rods will guide your journey home And revelations from a fist of bones And when the rock weighs heavy in your soul Just tell her that you have earned the right to know Revealer, how to break the fever You carried in, like these demons your kin And you’ll render it secret then Distance, mark of distance Your burden is your brilliance There’s a vessel, a hidden vessel in the stone Difference, not indifference Your passion sparks resilience And you wrestle, and how you wrestle to come to know The whispering light The truth is awful quiet Like it’s whispering at night Can tell you how to Break the fever With light The truth is awful quiet Whispering at light Can tell you how to Break the fever With light The truth is awful quiet Whispering at light Can tell you how to…

“So startlingly original… the Manchester based Californian whose remarkable new album Hunting My Dress confirms her as one of alternative folk-pop’s most arresting recent arrivals” Sunday Times
“Friends in high places never hurt, but Jesca Hoop hits the heights all by herself” 4/5 Mojo
“Murder of Birds’ is, literally, startling” Word
“Devastatingly delicious” 4/5 Time Out
“Hunting My Dress sounds like the sprouting of a wondrous new talent” 4/5 The Guardian
“An assured innovative, impressive piece of work” The Observer
“Genuinely gorgeous… the likes of which come along all too rarely” Music Week
“Pitch-perfect folk” Grazia
“4/5” Evening Standard
Jesca Hoop continues her meteoric rise to stardom with the release of the ‘Whispering Light’ single lifted from the highly acclaimed Hunting My Dress album. This will coincide with a full headline UK tour in May to follow her sold out February jaunt, abounding radio support and a 4Play TV showing.
With ‘Whispering Light’, we find Jesca teasing and goading her own lyrics, playing push me-pull you against the stark backdrop. It seems perfectly economical as was intended. This is backed by the swooping ‘The Kingdom’ where Hoop embodies a “banshee-esque battle goddess who's call it is to deliver a spell bound death to those dying, yet still attached to this earth”. This story is carried on the back of monstrous percussion, through the wail of sirens and Hoop's fireside narration.
