In his newest, self-titled album, Jesse Daniel Edwards strips it back. He and his piano resonate like old friends—they are well acquainted. “I’m So Happy (I Think I Might Cry)” is bold in lyrics and vocals, piano keys punching; it’s a cathartic ballad that begs to be sung in the car on the way home from work. The sense of urgency in these tracks, paired with the inherent storytelling of his lyrics is weighty—it feels personal, both to Edwards and to the listener. Are we sure Edwards isn’t related to Rufus Wainwright? Because his rich and emotive vocals say check again.
