Beachwood Canyon is the third studio album by Jem, released 5 August 2016.[1][2]

Background

[edit]

In January 2015, it was announced that the album would be released within the year; it was not. In January 2016, Jem published on her Facebook page the first photoshoots of the Beachwood Canyon era and announced the official release of the album for spring 2016.[3]

On Beachwood Canyon, Jem showcases her production skills, with the album looking to yesteryear for inspiration, and especially to the sounds of Simon & Garfunkel, The Byrds and the Beatles.[citation needed] The album's roots and title were established when Jem lived in Beachwood Canyon, Los Angeles – famed for being the winding road that leads to the Hollywood Sign.[citation needed] The majority of the album was recorded at Grandmaster Studios in Hollywood.[citation needed]

The sole single "Beachwood Canyon", was released on 1 July.[citation needed] For "Beachwood Canyon", Jem released lyric videos which featured the lyrics written in 13 different languages, including Welsh, German, and Japanese.[4]

Critical reception

[edit]

Allan Raible for ABC News called the album "beautiful", adding that it was "an ideal listening choice for those looking for something on a mellow summer afternoon".[5]
