“Across its 13-track span the record asserts itself with a beautifully framed sense of character, graceful in its approach and empathetic in its revelation.”
8/10 Clash

“It plays the softer than silk, pseudo-gospel rock style of boygenius with heart and emphatically hits every pacing beat on its checklist.”
The Skinny 8/10

“I could go on for hours about the beauty within the story of You Are The Morning, but the record truly speaks for itself. From the luscious instrumentation to the heart-on-sleeve lyrics, jasmine.4.t’s first full-length shares a message that needs to be heard: a message of hope found within community.” 10/10 Sputnik Music

Trans singer songwriter jasmine.4.t (Jasmine Cruickshank) sings about the tangled joy, heartache, camaraderie and isolation of transfeminine life. Based in Manchester, she is the first UK signee to Phoebe Bridgers' label Saddest Factory Records. Her new single "Skin on Skin" produced by Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers and Lucy Dacus. 

Jasmine came to the guitar after her late uncle passed his instrument down. Soon, she was playing in “silly skate punk bands” and self-releasing scrappy originals on Breakfast Records, the label she co-founded with friends in Bristol.

Jasmine.4.t’s music bursts with moments of love through its fingerpicked guitar, punk bombast, and raw vocal takes. She combines performance with activism and uses her platform to advocate for trans rights and marginalised groups. “Being signed by Phoebe Bridgers is immediately going to open me up to a wider audience,” she says. “I take it seriously, just to be a visible trans woman role model in music, because there aren't that many, and there should be more.”

jasmine.4.t is ready to be that beacon. Backed by an all-trans-woman band and a label full of friends and supporters, her vivid and intimate stories will reach new listeners, conveying the reality of her lived experience.

“There’s no diffidence in the songs themselves. Soak exposes longings, fears, traumas and resolve--sometimes elliptically, sometimes with disarming bluntness.”
