Interview: Jade Jezebel Jagger

What inspires you?
I’m always inspired by new countries; the energy and freshness is so uplifting. Not knowing what is around every corner creates a tension I thrive on. Sonically I am a huge lover of all music, from acoustic to disco and electronica. It all depends on the time of day and mood I’m in. I love the way music makes you feel and how it can transform you.
Does having a famous dad open doors in the music industry or was it more difficult to live up to the great expectations for your Jezebel parties?
I’m sure my father creates a certain allure for people coming to our Jezebel parties, and it has definitely opened up doors in so far as I have had the chance to meet so many great performers. I have never let my Jagger name get in the way of what I do; I am very independent and feel that I have carved my own identity with all that I do.
How do you manage to juggle so many different interests—fashion, jewellery design and hosting music parties?
I love all the different mediums I work in, and for me they all share one artistic common goal. It’s always hard to get your priorities right especially with a family, but I am lucky enough to love what I do.
What have you been listening to recently?
2 bears’ (a collaboration between Hot Chip’s Joe Goddard and Raf Daddy) Curious Nature EP and Felix Dickinson’s latest album of ace remixes are what my ears have been glued to.
You are famous for your parties. What kind of a set can we expect from the party in Singapore?
No-holds barred chaos set to a Balearic backdrop and a heady, intoxicating cocktail of house and disco.
How do you unwind after a marathon revelry session?
I often like to go home and have a last drink together with my team. We are like a family, so it’s always great to have a good natter about how everything went. But it’s usually so late though and we have had so much fun dancing that we are all ready for bed.Gear up for some jumping Jezebel tunes till the sun rises at
