New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Annette Babich Events) Melodic, tranquil and subtle, the songs of singer/songwriter Jem Warren will be released in a new CD album �Lifeblood To My Soul� on April 29. A release party on that evening will herald the debut with a performance by Jem and his band at The Bowery Electric in New York City.
Combining melodies reminiscent of
Tracy Chapman with a smooth groove similar to
Everything But The Girl, Jem Warren has a tranquil musical sensibility similar to artists like
Jose Gonzalez and Sun Kil Moon. �The songs on �Lifeblood To My Soul� reflect the longing and yearning we all have felt at some point in our lives,� says Warren. �There is nothing more fulfilling than writing a song and creating a sound that deeply moves me.�
�Lifeblood To My Soul� comprises five songs: Fall Apart, Trouble, All I Need,
Jim Jones and Freed. Jem composed all music and lyrics in addition to singing and accompanying himself on guitar.
Raised in Carmel, NY, by musician parents, Jem is now a resident of New York City. Living in the city has provided rich material for his songwriting � Jem keeps a diary of his life experiences in the form of song. He poetically expresses his perceptions of his world, writing about everything from love and nature to politics and religion.
Active on the New York City music scene since the mid-2000s, Jem performs regularly at venues such as The Bitter End and Caffe Vivaldi and has appeared at the Livingroom and Sidewalk Caf�. He engages audiences with profound lyrical fragility, genuine storytelling and a melodic, haunting style. A performance schedule as well as CD purchase information is available at www.jemwarren.com (as of mid-March). Additional information about Jem can be found at www.myspace.com/jemwarren.
The CD release party will take place on April 29, 7:30pm to 11pm, at The Bowery Electric in New York City. For information and tickets, please contact Annette Babich,
