  1. Jess By The Lake – Human Review By Creeping Ivy

    The last time Jasmin Lempinen graced these storied pages, she was fronting a band of elders.1 As ‘Jess,’ Lempinen co-founded Jess and the Ancient Ones, singing on four albums for these under-heralded occult rockers from 2012–2021. So bewitching were the hippied strains of Second Psychedelic Coming: The Aquarius Tapes (2015) that Steel Druhm Circleensconced in a cloud of patchouli smoke—was all but forced to mint it with a rare 4.0.2 Shifting from fuzzy psych rock to jazzy noir rock à la Amy Winehouse, Lempinen released her first solo album, Under the Red Light Shine (2019), under the moniker Jess By The Lake, to positive reception. Long-awaited follow-up Human sees Lempinen leaving the Ancient Ones behind for good, squarely focusing on her solo career.3

    And yet, Jess By The Lake searches for something even older in her continuing aquatic retreat. As Lempinen herself describes it, Human serves as ‘an analog counterattack’ against ‘disposable, soulless, plastic, mindless output,’ ‘unashamedly pay[ing] homage to…the traditions of rock music.’ Joined by original drummer Marianne Heikkinen, Lempinen plays electric guitar and a Rhodes piano, beyond her central role as vocalist. New to Jess By The Lake are guitarist Sampo Leksis and bassist Oliver Karttunen, who help Lempinen give voice to earthy classic rock in the tradition of Big Brother and the Holding Company and early CCR. Also forming the album’s traditionalism is its analog production: Human was recorded on magnetic tape in the summer of 2023 at Höyrybaari in Lapinlahti, Finland, by Tommi Saikkonen and Leksis (who also mixed the album). A review of another album might have relegated these recording details to the footnotes, or not mentioned them at all. But given Lempinen’s motivations and aspirations for Human, it only seems right to specify the time, place, and conditions of the album’s creation. One thing you can’t say about Jess By The Lake’s sophomore album is that it sounds plastic—it’s organic and crackling, fully alive.

    As with Jess and the Ancient Ones, Lempinen is the star of Jess By The Lake, and her performance on Human engrosses with affecting dynamism. ‘My own voice finally sounded familiar and authentic,’ she explains, when it was recorded analog for the new album. While undoubtedly authentic, comparing Lempinen’s voice to familiar artists will prove helpful. If Under the Red Light Shine saw her primarily channelling Amy Winehouse, on its follow-up, she lets her Joplin flag fly. Opening the album with a screeching wail, “Jaleihou” sees Lempinen showing off her falsettos and even dipping into some quasi-yodels. On the more delicate side of the spectrum, “Lovely Boy” contains some gorgeous harmonies, undergirded by the twinkling warmth of the Rhodes. Tracks like “Falling Under” and “The Shame” fully capture Lempinen’s range, starting off subdued and sultry before letting loose with some powerfully distorted head voice. A section here and there fell flat for me (the chorus of “Wanderin Kind”), but overall, the vocals on Human are as rawly human as they get.

    The Lake deserves credit as well—it’s more than just a backing band. As guitarist, Leksis delivers a smattering of simple-yet-unshakeable blues riffs (“Jaleihou”) and on-the-money solos (“Sister”). Bass/drum combo Karttunen and Heikkinen proceed into the foreground when needed, whether to provide delicately bumpin’ grooves (“Lovely Boy”) or busier supporting fills (“Alice,” “Holy Grove”). As a unit, Lempinen, Leksis, Karttunen, and Heikkinen deal in straightforward, time-tested songwriting. Still, there’s enough character to keep things interesting. “How Could You Tell?” is one such song, slowly picking up the pace before a peppery ending reminiscent of Dire Straits (without the guitar noodling). The sonically muffled “Holy Groves” also adds pleasant variety, coming off as an artsy post-rock capper for Human.

    I must admit I miss Lempinen’s collaboration with the Ancient Ones. But I also applaud her decision to go solo, and Human signifies a bold new chapter for Jess By The Lake. While Under the Red Light Shine was more immediately sticky, Lempinen’s sophomore effort shines for its combination of sonic authenticity and classic songcraft. In 2026, any musician embracing organic recording processes deserves our attention, and if the music is good, deserves even more of it. Jess By The Lake fits both these bills—check out Human, especially if you’re yearning for the rockin’ tunes and tones of yesteryear.

    "I don't know why it is I'm still on the case
    It's a ravenous town
    And you still refuse to be traced
    Seems to me such a waste
    And every victory has a taste that's bittersweet
    And it's your face I'm looking for on every street"
