KC Turner Presents Jesca Hoop at Hopmonk Tavern
Date: Friday, February 17, 2023
Time: Doors Open at 7:00pm and Show Starts at 8:00pm
Jesca Hoop returns with her sixth album, Order of Romance, a record that fortifies her position as one of the most striking and original voices in contemporary music. Order of Romance is Hoop's most intricate and finely balanced album to date, one that draws on classic song writing, recalling anything from Gershwin to Paul Simon, but creating something that is unmistakably, indelibly Jesca Hoop.
Like a lot of tour ready musicians in 2020, Jesca Hoop suddenly found she had time on her hands, and like a lot of musicians, with stages blacked out, she turned her work inward. As it was for many people, those housebound days were some of the most tumultuous of her life, and she found the discipline and balance of a daily writing routine essential in coping with the unknowns that assailed us all during that
time. But Order of Romance is most assuredly not a journaling of the last two years. It is a deep dive intocraft. As Jesca says “I set out to mature as a writer, to further clarity my voice and stance, throughmelodies and phrases only I can construct. Order of Romance feels like every person, character, or artist,I ever was over the many seasons of my life was handed an instrument to play across the songs.”
