Jem Cassar-Daley has released a fresh new single “Oh No” ahead of the release of her debut EP. It’s got such a great pop vibe and an addictive melody that I can’t get out of my head. Jem’s vocals are also superb on this one.
“I wrote ‘Oh No’ at my first ever APRA SONGHUBS on the Gold Coast last year, where I met Ali Barter and Tom Eggert,” Jem explained. “We had a session together and started jamming on the guitar and the song took its form from there. The vocals in the final track are actually the original demo vocals recorded in Bignote Studios! We felt that the energy from that day was hard to recapture so we kept them.”
Jem continued collaborating with Tom, recording the song in his study in the valley earlier this year.
Jem’s debut EP I Don’t Know Who to Call drops next Friday. In addition to its launch event, Jem has plenty of gigs booked for the next couple of months. Here are all the dates you need:
