A singer/songwriter vibe with an intriguing vocal accent and smooth musical build. Think U2 meets John Mayer.”
“Hip Hop and Folk are not easily combined, but ‘Highways’ from Jessamyn Day certainly delivers elements of both genres. Leaning closer to Folk early on, the track settles into more of a Rock style reminiscent of Red Hot Chili Peppers deeper in.

A track that is finely crafted, and delivered with passionate talent.”

“Zoe Zobrist has the perfect voice for a track like this. Soft and slow in the build and tone, ‘Better’ is a song of regret and heartache.

The writing is strong, though it is the performance that truly hits the emotional aspects, and makes you feel every word.”
“The emotional build and delivery reminded me of Jason Isbell a great deal. You could call this a day in the life of a touring musician, but the emotional relevance certainly goes wider than that.
’Minneapolis’ is a brooding story song that takes the listener for a ride while transporting them to a place and time making the track deeply feelable. The day is tangible in the mind and in the heart as you feel every word and turn of the finely crafted melody.

“When you are in a room alone you start to ponder and reminisce wondering are you the only one with feelings. Artist Arcana understands that the presence is gone but wonders are the emotions still there. Does that person still think about you as much as you think about them or is it all one sided?”
