Always In Between is the second studio album by English singer and songwriter Jess Glynne, released on 12 October 2018 by Atlantic Records. It was announced on 29 June 2018 along with a world tour of the same name.[3] The album was supported by the UK number-one single "I'll Be There". It is Glynne's first studio album in three years since the release of her debut project in 2015, I Cry When I Laugh.
Critical reception
Alexis Petridis of The Guardian gave the album two stars out of five, calling it "generic Top 40 and soul-pop finished to a high standard". While noting that the album is "influenced by classic soul, heavy on the blaring brass – not so much Amy Winehouse as her less emotionally wrenching contemporary Joss Stone – and, at the other, undemanding dance-pop topped by an immediately recognisable voice, the same idea that garnered M People vast success 20 years ago", Petridis concluded that "You can see why people relate to it, you can tell it's going to be huge: it is what pop is in 2018, but the feeling that pop can be something rather more than this is hard to shake."[2] Will Hodgkinson of The Times gave the album the same rating, comparing tracks "No One" and "Broken" and their "teary verses and swelling choruses" to Adele but said the tracks "lack Adele's ability to evoke real feeling". He ultimately called the album "missing any real sense of character or expression".[4]
