14/03/15: We’ve been massive Jessie Ware fans since she burst on to the music scene, so when we heard she was taking to the stage at Heaven, we were there with bells on. Well, not actual bells… Which begs the big question, what do we Ware?! We opted for: smart enough to impress, slutty enough to pull. We got ourselves warmed up in the R&B/pop room before Jessie unleashed some of her Wildest Moments onto an eager crowd. It seems we weren’t the only gays that were big fans, do you know how many queens we had to squeeze through to get to the front?! We can’t say we were surprised when her ethereal vocals sent goosebumps Running down our arms. She’s one of those artists that can captivate an entire venue on the first note. Jessie then had the whole venue skanking along to Imagine It Was Us, before putting the breaks on again for Champagne Kisses. She topped off an amazing set with Disclosure’s remix of Running – and it’s safe to say the audience was left on a high note. But definitely not ready to stop dancing yet… And when we finally were, the night wouldn’t have completed without an obligatory, rowdy trip to Charing Cross McDs. Come back soon, Jessie!
