Birmingham-born, London-based Sydney Jo Jackson gets personal in new single “You Should Be Here.”
“You Should Be Here,” is a sultry slow burner that drips with smoky brass, hypnotic beats, and vocals that command attention. Written in one spontaneous take while vibing to a beat by Jonas Bauer in Bali, the track captures raw emotion and the kind of energy that can’t be faked. It’s a deep dive into confronting personal flaws, breaking cycles, and finally understanding accountability. Sydney’s music is born from life’s chaos. She’s lived through domestic abuse, a failed high-profile relationship, followed later by a painful divorce.
