Global Superstar
Jahna Sebastian releases
‘Calling’, the second single off her critically acclaimed album
Legends On The Map. The
London based singer/songwriter/ producer and engineer released the
album this past spring. The album featured her first single ‘
Looking for Love’ which was a smash hit.
Legends On the Map was written, recorded, produced, performed and mixed by Ms. Sebastian at
Multivizion Music. It’s a one woman project like her first album
The Alchemist.
Ms. Sebastian stated when talking about the new album, “It continues
the story as I unfold my vision for the world to bring people together
through music. It’s a conceptual album and every song is like a point in
the map in a tale. It means that it’s time for people to co create our
history together and realize the potential and the legends are happening
in real life as we speak.”‘
‘Calling’ was written, recorded, produced, arranged, performed, mixed
by Ms. Sebastian at her studio Multivizion Music. When asked about her
new single, Ms. Sebastian stated, “The song has that light summer feel,
like a soundtrack when you set on a journey. It is about finding your
own calling, following your dream and realizing that now is that time to
go for it, expand your potential, live the dream with a love of
freedom. Sometimes it’s too easy to lose one self in stereotypes, but
there is a way to have the courage to step up against any fake scenarios
or versions of who you are that were a mere attempt by someone else to
fit you into. It’s time to create a personal path. I wrote this song as
it’s that time to live the truth. It’s love that you can feel inside,
it’s that passion for the knowledge, it’s that beautiful idea that had
to come to reality. Whatever it is, every moment is a part of a bigger
story and when your heart is calling, the universe will answer. Every
song on my album is like a place on the map, familiar to many in a
personal way, ‘Calling’ is like that time you are ready at the station
with new exciting horizons in sight. Speaking of the horizons and the
hope for peace in this world. ”
Ms. Sebastian recently did a photo shoot with photographer Rob Wilson
for Croydon Peace Festival exhibition at the Croydon Town Hall. She
wore a silver dress by Luv Look UK during the shoot. One of the pictures
features her holding a dove in her hand as the symbol of world peace.
It shows the different sides of Croydon while showcasing a peaceful
mindset you can have while in the busy city. Its quite symbolic of our
time. The photographs taken were works of art. The photographs showed
how diverse the city is and showcased people in such an intimate and
intricate way.
Ms. Sebastian stated, “In the world where so much is currently going
on, this exhibition is very much on point at the right time as one of
the ways for us to come together as humanity is to celebrate peace and
love reminding ourselves what it’s like to find peace within yourself.
It is also showing how we can build a better community. People were
using #whatdoespeacelookliketoyou to contribute to the movement. ”
SKY TV channel London Live TV did a special feature about the
exhibition with an interview with photographer Rob Wilson and Ms.
Sebastian. During her interview Ms. Sebastian stated, ‘Croydon is a very
multi cultural place, it constantly inspires me. There is a dove in my
hand, and that is the ultimate symbol of peace. So you can see that you
can have that feeling walking through the city, while having a bit of
nature, while having these questions and answers, but at the same time
looking at the dove and having that feeling, because it comes from
inside. It’s in our hands, everyday people can make that change, we can
create it, embrace every single moment, and it can all start from
Croydon. Croydon is the place to be.’
Ms. Sebastian also did an instagram live video with the photographer
where they spoke about peace, art and many ways that culture could help
promote these ideas. She wore a long black gown by Luv Look UK, earrings
and black bag by designer Johnny Loves Rosie.
Ms. Sebastian was booked and busy, she also found the time to
collaborate with luxury fragrance brand Miller Harris and film a special
episode about her conversation with fragrance expert Nick Gilbert. The
conversation took place at an event the London shop was holding. The
shop is inspired by the poets and featured art installations showcasing
different fragrance with accompanying poetic pieces and sounds. They
discussed the inspiration from the use of perfume in the ancient times
and how it can be incorporated in the artful way into modern day life.
