Before the making of this new album Jules Jackson, singer of The Big Moon suffered from a condition which caused her to lose her hearing in one ear. Instead of dwelling on the negatives of this situation, she decided to write songs that focused on the idea of ‘feeling better’ instead. Having had my own issues with my hearing over the past few years, I was intrigued to hear this album ‘Forever’ and have found it to be one of the catchiest, most life-affirming and deeply emotional records of the year.
