With a renegade spirit and luminous voice, Jess Knights can traverse sultry ballads and raise-the-roof-off-the-church soul with ease. Her new album Best Kind of Light, released June 19, 2020, is rooted in revivalist soul with classic roots tones, and brings into focus the moody spectrum of Knights’ classically-trained voice. Called an artist “who can play in the big leagues with some of this country’s best musicians and not only hold her own but own it all” (TheYYScene), Knights is establishing herself as Canada’s preeminent soul-roots sweetheart; a captivating performer that is bound to leave an impression.
