Jarrod Lawson

US singer, songwriter and keyboardist Jarrod Lawson returns with his third studio album Just Let It, a confident and expansive new release that sees him exploring fresh musical territory while remaining rooted in his acclaimed soul, jazz and R&B sound. Now based in Nashville, Lawson has introduced the forthcoming 14-song set with two standout singles. The Nineties-inspired groove ‘Next Move’, a collaboration with Los Angeles vocalist Raquel Rodriguez, reached #1 on the US Urban Influencer R&B/Soul Top 30 and was named the #1 track of 2024 on the UK Soul Chart. This was followed by the atmospheric slow jam ‘Do Whatchu Gotta’, co-written with French chill-hop artist Rose Noir. Just Let It finds Lawson embracing new creative directions and collaborations. Party-funk highlight ‘Laugh At Yourself’ features Grammy-nominated artist Eric Roberson, while two tracks produced by New York producer CARRTOONS - the driving ‘Let Your Heart’ and the heartfelt ballad ‘I’d Do It Again’, feature rapper JSwiss. Additional collaborations include ‘There Can Only Be One’ with US soul vocalist Allen Stone and the powerful ‘Head-On’, featuring rapper donSmith. Just Let It arrives six years after Lawson’s acclaimed second album Be The Change, which reached #2 on the Billboard Contemporary Jazz Albums chart. During the intervening period, he further cemented his reputation with a widely praised reinterpretation of The Isley Brothers’ classic ‘Footsteps In The Dark’.
