Jack Davey, frontwoman for the electro-soul duo J*Davey, who’ve graced the cover of LA Weekly’s Beautiful People issue and won over the hearts of your favorite musicians’ favorite musicians such as Prince and ?uestlove, has been experimenting with a solo sound, one that’s much more rock-driven than before. Says Jack, “This project is definitely a departure from the lush soundscapes and sexual overtones that make J*Davey special; it’s straight to the gut, a bit easier to swallow, but still edgy.” .

Following the release of Jack Davey’s video for the song “Howl At The Moon” comes the rest of L0-F!‘s front half, simply titled Side A, now available today for digital download. The first of three releases for Jack’s new project, with Side B coming out November 6th followed by a deluxe version of L0-F! on December 11th, Side A introduces the world to her grungy side, or as she likes to describe it, “a girl, her shitty guitar, and introspective songwriting.”

Side A is a five-track journey into the psyche of a songwriter entering a brand new chapter in her life. “I literally recorded every song in the walk-in closet in my Koreatown apartment during the few moments when my newborn baby was asleep,” says Jack. “I was hearing a raw & gritty rock sound in my head & knew that I would have to create it myself in order to get exactly what I was imagining.”

Jack Davey’s head-first dive into frenetic, stripped down rock ‘n’ roll with Side A was, as she describes it, “a quick, harmless feat that started off as one long song with five different parts. Along with “Howl At The Moon,” there’s “Eye Can See” and “Tinted Windows,” which both utilize racing drum machine heartbeats and distortion fuzzy enough to get lost in; then there’s the methodical “The Only Lonely One” and the intoxicating composition of “Ride On,” with all five tracks coated with Jack’s relentlessly sultry vocals.
