London-based singer Frenchie has shared her latest single under the guise of The Naked Eye, a collaborative project centered around the singer. Following the release of earlier tracks "Embrace Me" and "Sweet Boy", this new one entitled "River Of No Return" marks a noticeable upgrade in the jazz sitting at the forefront of the song.

The electronica that underpinned their previous songs is still there but with decidedly more jazz inflections. Add to that some hip-hop beats, lush instrumentation and Frenchie's dazzling vocals, it makes for a fascinating listen. Their collective creativity shines through on this exceptional track, and I can't wait to hear their next musical move.

Speaking about the track, Frenchie says: the track was inspired by a personal experience and one of my favourite artists, Amy Winehouse. I was really drawn to Amy for many reasons, her unique musicality, honest vulnerability, sharp wit and tragedy.

The Naked Eye are making preparations for the release of a debut EP in 2016. Until then, grab a hot cup of something, press play and vibe out.
