Album Notes

Real (2010) is the digital re-release of singer/songwriter Jasper Kump's very first original music EP. It features not only his warm, smooth voice but poignant and sometimes raw lyrics about love, life and the search for meaning. An established jazz/pop/folk vocalist, Jasper is known as an iconoclast - always doing something new and unexpected.

"Hey Jesus" questions faith in light of life situations. "Lullabye" is a sung goodbye and tribute to friends lost to AIDS. "More" is an anthem against domestic violence. "Humming & Buzzing & Spinning" is a sweet love song, actually based on a love letter written to his best friend by her finacee (now husband). Finally, "Life Is Now" is a fun, electronic anthem with vocal interjects that reminds us that not a moment should be wasted or taken for granted.
