"These acoustic versions were the last three things I recorded on my Fostex 4-track tape machine before the transport broke irreparably. We put them on the Japanese release of my album You Are the Morning as bonus tracks. We were originally gonna use the actual demos that got me signed by Phoebe, but my voice has changed a lot since then and I wanted to redo them but in exactly the same way: with two vocal tracks and two guitar tracks, recorded in my bedroom on tape," jasmine.4.t explains.
"You Are The Morning is an album about queer love and hope and solidarity, and so I wanted to share these tracks in that spirit. All the money from these new versions will be donated to akt, a charity in the UK who support young LGBTQIA+ people through housing emergencies. I was homeless and sleeping on the floors and sofas of Manchester’s queer community while I wrote these songs. The people who supported me during that time became my family and the muses for my album. This is such a beautiful full circle moment for me, to be in the privileged position of being able to pay that debt forward. Thank you all so much for your support. I love you."
