"'Bring You Home,' the first single, is instantly and powerfully passionate." - Seattle Weekly
"...an immensly talented vocalist who's virtually without peer." - Denver Westword
After three albums fronting alt.rock band Ours, Jimmy Gnecco's first solo album is arguably the most personal and affecting work of his career. Self-produced and titled The Heart, it's a watershed work which sees Jimmy drop his guard and raise the bar.
We all have to reckon with loss and the events that have shaped us sooner or later, and this record is Gnecco's compelling attempt to do just that. Jimmy plays every instrument on the album - guitar, bass, keyboards, drums -, and he proves more than capable on these and other instruments. But, it's his evocative, soulful voice that takes centre stage. Notice how the perfectly controlled falsetto on "Rest Your Soul" establishes a potent sense of intimacy that's sustained for the record's duration. Jimmy has created fifteen songs with a potent mix of intimacy, integrity and beautiful melancholy. Its elegant, elegiac songs are slowgrowers that get right under the skin.
