Music Review: Jennie Walker’s “Night Flight to London”

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at City London chapter.

Jennie Walker is the sophisticated New Yorker bringing life and love to her sultry debut album, ‘Night Flight to London’. Born in South America, Jennie has enjoyed music from the earliest moments of her life, writing songs with her mother who was classically trained in opera.

In this album the soulful singer combines the confidence gained over years of experience with an up tempo rhythm and clever lyrics. Produced and co-written with the highly acclaimed Tommy Faragher, the sound and overall atmosphere of the album is polished and comes across with an air of careful consideration in every note and word, like an artist expert in their trade.

Provocative in some ways with the tracks, ‘Your Father Your Mother’ and ‘Black Hat’, Jennie explores life and romance with a natural retrospective as well as sense of celebration of where she is now.

Jennie Walker is definitely someone to be celebrating as the winner of the British Airways Face of Opportunity Contest 2011, the company was overwhelmed by her music as well as her business mind set to make a success of her album. This lady comes across with a wealth of experience and as someone who has lived an incredible life.

Her album ‘Night Flight to London’ celebrates all of her achievements, both personally and professionally, to present herself now at the perfect time in her life. To be listened to in the car as an uplifting start to the morning or as a pick me up on the way back from work, Jennie Walker’s debut would definitely keep you listening on a night flight to London.
