London’s Trans Pride march is just over a week away and to celebrate here is, ‘Skin on Skin‘, a gorgeous new track from Manchester’s jasmine.4.t.
The singer-songwriter is Phoebe Bridgers’ first UK signing to her label, Saddest Factory Records with Bridgers’ co-producing the track alongside Boygenius’ Lucy Dacus & Julien Baker. “Being signed by Phoebe Bridgers is immediately going to open me up to a wider audience,” says Jasmine. “I take it seriously, just to be a visible trans woman role model in music, because there aren’t that many, and there should be more.”
Jasmine came to the guitar after her late uncle passed his instrument down. Soon, she was playing in “silly skate punk bands” and self-releasing scrappy originals on Breakfast Records, the label she co-founded with friends in Bristol.
