Jessie Ware premieres new song 'Tough Love'

It has been teased around for the last week or so, but finally UK singer-songwriter Jessie Ware has unveiled her latest single 'Tough Love'.

The track is the first piece of new material taken from her forthcoming second album and will be available as a digital download from the 3rd August.

Written by Ware and producer BenZel, she explains how the new track came about, saying, "I had just finished a run of shows in the States and went to NY to work with BenZel for a couple weeks, mainly as a different focus to touring. I didn't have any expectations or pressures with what would come out of those two weeks, and think 'Tough Love' sums this up. It was me experimenting with my voice and having fun with it. It just felt right and kind of dictated the route of the next album, much like 'Devotion' did on my first album".

Currently no official word on the new album has been announced yet, but Ed Sheeran as well as previous collaborators Kid Harpoon and The Invisible's Dave Okumu have all expressed their involvement on the new record.
