MUSIC: Jamie Moon - Oh, My Heart

Jamie Moon, a Nottingham based musician has recently released his new EP 'Oh, My Heart' and with an indie cool sound to the EP it was something that definitely caught my attention in the mix of music that I listen to lately. Going back to my roots Jamie Moon's latest release definitely hits home with me in that respect. The five track EP deals with every aspect of love someone can go through and it's wonderful to be able to go on this journey with the artist.

'Oh, My Heart' has a clear direction from the start, with an almost softly spoken voice, there are clear influences from Ben Howard but without sounding like he's imitating the already established artist. Singing about his own experiences it's hard to not get captivated by Jamie Moon's lyrics and unique voice.

'Bloom' the opening track obviously describing the beginning of a new relationship and watching it blossoming. With an acoustic sound to all his tracks, this has a bit more depth with an airy voice coming through every now and again, the arrangement of this song is gorgeous. It sounds very cautious like you are when you first get into a relationship. Towards the end it builds into a crescendo as if he's finally telling the person how he feels. Incredibly romantic.

'Wallflower' starts more upbeat with an easy going vibe to the acoustic track. Very pop, the song sounds effortlessly cool and cheerful. 'Falling to pieces around you, what you doing to me' finally opening up and admitting his own feelings and wanting them to want him too. It's a very hopeful song that will no doubt have you smiling.

The title track is up next. 'Oh, My Heart' is a lot softer and a lot moodier. Depicting how he will 'meet you anywhere' and do anything for the person, to me it sounds like a song of holding on when maybe the other person isn't. I imagine this to sound incredible live, the intensity that Jamie Moon could no doubt get into it would make for an amazing performance.

'Fear For Your Life' is next starting with that simply acoustic guitar and finger picking. A track about moving on in your life and making  more commitments to a person and how it can be scary. With the sound of a drum that sounds like a heartbeat makes it intense and sound a bit edgier and rockier. This is my favourite track on the EP. It's something that I'm definitely relating to a lot at the moment but it also sounds very positive. The track is also completely open and honest which helps Jamie Moon stand out. This is such an incredible stand out track and it's easy to see why he's gathering a supportive following.

The final track on the EP is 'The Day We Met' a heartbreaking account of how he fell for her when he first met her 'can't help but notice you were sad, from the moment that we met'. It's beautifully written and will be pulling at your heartstrings no doubt. You can buy Jamie Moon's 'Oh, My Love' EP here.
