Helena Jessie

about

“The law of attraction clearly dictates, the more you think of something, the more it comes your way.” Helena Jessie – The Law Of Attraction. Helena Jessie is not a quantum physicist. She is, however, a singer and songwriter with a voice so striking one can’t help but be transported to an era when Ella Fitzgerald, Eartha Kitt and Julie London reigned supreme. Contemporaneously, of course, artists such as Grace Jones and Goldfrapp have provided a more sinister sisterly soundtrack but it is impossible to listen to Helena without thinking you are in the presence of an artist who combines glamour and intrigue so cleverly that she manages to be both relevant and reverential in equal measure. “I wanted to make a record that I would buy”, says Helena with typical modesty, but The Law Of Attraction is much more than this suggests: put bluntly, it is a record with an instant, classic feel (like something you have had knocking around the house for years) and the sound of someone hitting the ground running. Born in England and the youngest of four sisters, Helena was barely a year old when her family moved back to Ireland. Helena felt something of an outsider at her Co. Wicklow convent boarding school, a sentiment presumably reinforced when she “minced around like Marilyn Monroe,” or fantasised that she was “literally living inside a musical.” Naturally, Helena could be found secretly listening to a Walkman crammed with the songs of Frank Sinatra and Dinah Washington as she sketched
