“She stands for all the good stuff” – Jamie Cullum | “the lynchpin of Glasgow” – Emma-Jean Thackray | “A force of nature” – Tony Minvielle (Jazz FM) | “Open and full of whimsy… Lovely stuff” – Nemone | “An amazing DJ, really incredible producer, and I love her approach to making Jazz music” – Jamz Supernova | “When it comes to bringing it together, giving it that extra dimension, extra bit of energy, Rebecca’s the one… Never disappoints” – Gilles Peterson

Co-written with long-time collaborator Emilie Boyd while she was newly pregnant, “Sun Song” is a gently uplifting reflection on love, gratitude and the beauty of togetherness. Now sung by Boyd to her baby son, the track has taken on even deeper meaning, becoming part of his welcome into the world. “The sun makes us change our mood. It keeps everything alive,” says Vasmant. “This track is the sound of being in love—with life, with people, with the world around us.”
