Olive Jones’ Unplugged Soul | Acoustic Guitar Sessions
Jones plays acoustic versions of her songs “Tough on a Woman’s Heart” and “End of Time.”
London-based singer-songwriter Olive Jones stopped by the AG office to play a pair of tunes off her debut album, For Mary. Jones’ groove-forward, intuitive approach to fingerstyle comes from channeling her inner drummer. “When I’m writing, I’m imaging what the groove is, what the drums would ultimately play, and finding that in the guitar parts,” she explains.

Watch above as Jones plays her songs “Tough on a Woman’s Heart” and “End of Time” on a borrowed Collings 02H. The first was sparked by intergenerational conversations surrounding International Women’s Day, while the latter reflects on the longevity of love. Both are undeniably captivating and soulful.
Wow! I’d not heard of Olive Jones and am just knocked out. Her voice is magnificent. The guitar accompaniment is just perfect. They pair so well.
