Jasmine Power’s latest single, LEAP, is a masterclass in cinematic pop — an intricately crafted, emotionally resonant song that effortlessly balances soaring melodies with reflective storytelling. Written alongside co-writer Stephen Leiweke in Nashville, Tennessee, LEAP takes listeners on a journey through fleeting train stations, bittersweet goodbyes, and the delicate tension between longing and liberation. Rooted in the Welsh concept of Hiraeth — a deep, almost ineffable yearning for a home or moment lost to time — the track pulses with both nostalgia and euphoria, celebrating the courage it takes to dive headfirst into the unknown.
“I hope LEAP inspires people to dance into their joy and to be fearless with their dreams and the life they wish to lead… life is too short to do anything but,” Jasmine Power shares, summing up the essence of a song that feels as much like a personal diary as it does an anthem for dreamers everywhere. The track’s cinematic production complements its intimate lyrics, creating a soundscape that’s both vulnerable and exhilarating — a rare combination that invites repeated listens.
Power’s journey from Pembrokeshire to the music capitals of Nashville, Los Angeles, and New York has been nothing short of extraordinary. A graduate in Jazz Voice from Trinity Laban Conservatory of Music and Dance, she has established herself as a formidable talent, working alongside the likes of Melissa Manchester, Moses Boyd, Joe Armon-Jones, Laura Osnes, and Eric Martin. Her songwriting prowess extends beyond her own releases, contributing to projects for TV, film, and other artists, while her track Verge of the Unknown held a coveted eight-week run on BBC Radio Wales’ A-list playlist — a testament to her captivating artistry.
LEAP is more than a single; it’s a declaration of intent. Dedicated to those who make sacrifices in pursuit of their dreams, and infused with a sense of longing for home, it sets the stage for the next chapter of Jasmine Power’s evolving career. With further releases from her upcoming album on the horizon, LEAP promises to be just the first of many musical moments that inspire, uplift, and remind listeners of the magic found in daring to take the leap.
