A Confident Comeback: Jimmy Scott Free Lights Up the Floor
If your playlist needs a lift, start here: Jimmy Scott Free is back and aiming straight for your speakers. His new single, Turn Back Time, pairs his sharpened production with the timeless voice of the late house icon Kim English—an emotional, hands-in-the-air rush built for big nights and brighter mornings.
A decade after stepping away, the Southend-born artist—now bouncing between the Midlands and Barcelona—has rediscovered his engine. A friend coaxed him to power up the studio last year; the songs haven’t stopped since. Turn Back Time is the opening salvo: soulful, euphoric, and radio-ready, channeling the same raw energy he once poured into packed live shows.
Jimmy’s roots run deep in the UK underground. He promoted nights at 15, built a reggae-style sound system with his brother, and took their live dance act onto stages with Peter Hook and The Light, Groove Armada, and Skunk Anansie—picking up Best Dance Track at the Exposure Music Awards in 2010. Life threw its punches (a gas explosion in Amsterdam at 21, a wrongful arrest later cleared), but resilience is part of the rhythm. Now he’s focused, independent, and building toward a run of singles, a full album, and a potential new live show—with a simple video and studio footage on the way.
If you love soulful house with heart, follow Jimmy Scott Free now and be first in line for every drop. Turn back time with him—then watch him sprint forward.
