The new single from Jensen & Company, "Awake", is an amazing musical discovery. It's a vibrant song that fills our ears and souls with a story of personal exodus, as individual and intimate as it is boundless. Vocally delivered by Heidi Jensen North, she is accompanied by Curtis North’s robust pounding drums and crafty production, creating a great combination of delicacy without frailty.
The production exemplifies exemplary collaboration. Captured in some of the world's finest studios, including Abbey Road in London, Blackbird in Nashville, and Rocking Horse Studio in New Hampshire, it imbues the song with a signature purity. The string arrangements by David Angell add emotional depth, and CMA producer-led piano embellishments by Jason Webb provide delicate nuance. Kim Keyes' background vocals, reminiscent of her work with Amy Grant, add depth and warmth to the song.
Fans will be caught up in the bounce and energy that permeates the atmosphere. They are fun and catchy, yet subtle, a showcase of Jensen & Company’s skill in creating music that is both accessible and artful. Tony Banks brings in some Genesis-inspired texture and infuses just enough prog without overshadowing the pop sensibility.
"Awake" is not just a single, it’s an experience. It celebrates the thrill of discovery, the power of teamwork, and the joy of music. Jensen & Company, which creates music to uplift or move you as needed.
