The Room

We say

The Jordan is the new musical project of Dutch singer and songwriter Caroline Van der Leeuw. Many readers may recall back in the early ‘10s she had a UK Platinum-selling debut album, Deleted Scenes From The Cutting Room Floor, and a UK no.1 follow-up, The Shocking Miss Emerald, as Caro Emerald. The Jordan sees Caroline explore a new musical chapter in her songwriting career with a different sound, direction and candour. The Room is the third single to be released from The Jordan’s debut album Nowhere Near The Sky, having released previous singles as a mysterious artist, amassing over 500k streams, before announcing herself. The song is a startlingly beautiful and cinematic number, full of emotion, and backed by hauntingly piano melodies and sparse electronic production. Tinged with David Lynch-esque soundscapes and elements of Kate Bush, Bat For Lashes and Tori Amos echoing throughout, The Room is a gorgeous opening track to her album that features production from David Kosten (Everything Everything, Chris Martin) and Eg White (Florence + The Machine, Sam Smith). Watch the brilliantly emotive video here. An astonishingly single that leaves you craving for more. Just brilliant.
