Global music superstar JADE returns today with her new single 'Plastic Box'.
Written by JADE with GRADES and Lauren Aquilina and co-produced by Oscar Görres, the track is a pulsating electro synth-pop song about jealousy and irrational emotion.
JADE says: "Plastic Box is about that irrational and toxic insecurity within us when we think about our partner's previous relationships, even though we know everyone has a past. It’s a happy-sad pop song and one of my favourite songs I've ever written."
'Plastic Box' is taken from her upcoming hugely anticipated debut solo album 'THAT’S SHOWBIZ BABY!'. The album will be released on September 12th and sees JADE work with a variety of A list collaborators on the project including Mike Sabath, Lostboy, Cirkut, RAYE and Pablo Bowman.
JADE also recently announced the dates for her first solo UK and Ireland tour 'THAT’S SHOWBIZ BABY! – THE TOUR', which has already completely sold out. JADE will hit the road in October and November of this year visiting Dublin, Belfast, Brighton, Manchester, Glasgow, Leeds, Birmingham, Bournemouth and Newcastle, before finishing at London's prestigious Roundhouse.
JADE has hit 190 million streams for her solo music in just 10 months. She recently performed two triumphant shows at Radio 1's Big Weekend and Mighty Hoopla, and played 'Plastic Box' at both to a thunderous reaction. She was also recently nominated for a prestigious Ivor Novello Award for 'Best Contemporary Song’ for her debut solo single 'Angel Of My Dreams', and will play a special full orchestral concert at the BBC Proms in Newcastle on July 25th.
JADE triumphed at this year's BRIT Awards winning 'Pop Act' and delivering the stand-out performance of the night, performing her superhit 'Angel Of My Dreams'. The performance video has been viewed over 2 million times, with The Guardian calling it ‘An episodic live performance so peculiar it stole the show’, whilst NME said it was ‘A staggering, theatrical performance’. Clash Magazine named it one of the greatest BRITS performances of all time.
JADE finished 2024 by winning the Trailblazer Award at The Rolling Stone UK Awards and appearing on the cover of the magazine. She was also included on many of the end of year 'Best Of' lists. 'Angel Of My Dreams' was named the No.1 song of 2024 by DIY Magazine and a Top 10 song by The Guardian, DORK, Clash and NME. In addition, Dazed named JADE’s ‘Angel Of My Dreams’ video of the year.
'Angel Of My Dreams' has been a huge commercial success. The track has accumulated over 100 million streams to date, entering the UK Official Singles Chart at No.7, the third highest new entry for a British artist last year. The accompanying video was a No.1 YouTube trending video for 10 days and has had 13 million views. The song remained in the Official UK Singles Chart Top 20 for two months.
Since then, JADE has dropped four more tracks, 'Midnight Cowboy', a sultry, understated bass heavy bop about owning your sexuality, the sleek disco-tinged 'Fantasy', complete with a video directed by the iconic David LaChapelle, the bold anthem 'IT girl' and the electrifying and dramatic 'FUFN'.
This Summer will see JADE perform at even more festivals including Glastonbury, All Points East, TRNSMT and the Montreux Jazz festival in Switzerland.
