- Jazzy releases her debut full-length album Peace and Patience after years of releasing singles and achieving over a billion streams across platforms.
- Jazzy has collaborated with major artists including Calvin Harris, Sonny Fodera, Rossi, and KILIMANJARO, contributing to her rise in the dance music scene.
- Jazzy will headline Dublin’s 3Arena in front of a home crowd, calling it the biggest milestone of her career to date.
- Jazzy says the album is more personal than her previous work, featuring tracks like Invisible, which she describes as her first diss track about a negative industry experience.
- Club culture in Ireland and the UK is declining, with Jazzy noting fewer venues available for emerging artists as around 12 UK venues close monthly post-pandemic.
- Dance music has grown significantly since 2020, with under-25 listenership rising over 73% globally, though many artists now favor singles over albums.
Why it matters: Jazzy’s album release marks a rare full-length project in a genre increasingly dominated by singles, highlighting a shift toward artistic depth amid declining physical spaces for dance music—venues have shrunk by nearly 30% since the pandemic, threatening the ecosystem that nurtures new talent.
