Jessie Ware is releasing a new album, That! Feels Good!, in April

Hear her new single “Pearls” now.

Jessie Ware has announced her fifth album, That! Feels! Good!, due for release on April 28 via EMI.

The album follows on from her 2020 release What’s Your Pleasure, which was her highest charting record to date, peaking at no.3 on the UK album charts. It also featured singles “Save A Kiss”, “Spotlight” and “Remember Where You Are”.

Ware first previewed the album at Glastonbury 2022 with the premiere of single “Free Yourself” during her set. Today, she follows it up with the disco-loving “Pearls”, which was co-written and produced by Coffee Clarence, JR, Sarah Hudson and Stuart Price.

Hear the new single “Pearls” now:

Speaking about “Pearls”, Ware said: “”Pearls” is a record that doesn’t take itself too seriously but demands you to have a dance. It’s inspired by divas like Donna Summer, Evelyn Champagne King, Teena Marie and Chaka Khan and I guess attempts to show – in lightness – all the hats I try to wear (usually at the same time). It’s the second song you will hear from my collaboration with Stuart Price and Coffee – with the wonderful addition of Sarah Hudson – and hopefully gives you a taste of the fun we have working together.”

She continues about the album: “That! Feels Good! is a record to be enjoyed, to sing and shout the words back at me and to each other. It’s a culmination of hard work and total pleasure appreciating the job I have and the worlds I get to dive into. I have never felt so ready for people to hear something I’ve made.”

You can pre-order a signed copy of That! Feels! Good! on black vinyl now.
