Listen: Jones - Hoops

Just look at that photo. That's a proper pop star in the making, right there. Stylish, insouciant, poised. It only adds to the sense of excitement and expectation around soul newcomer Jones.

According to the press release, Jones was "raised in east London by her soul-loving mum on Stevie and Luther" and "at an early age [she] began to turn her most private diary entries into songs, and her small shows for family members became tentative open mic sessions."

Her silky, sumptuous Indulge is one of the year's sexiest seduction songs. And now she's unveiled the first taste of her debut album, New Skin, which is due out in Spring 2016.

Produced by XO, Hoops sounds like The xx after they discovered their inner Sade. Sublime.
