Jasmine Power Welcomes 2026 With a Big, Brave, Beautiful “Leap”
If the start of a new year ever feels like a fresh page daring you to do something bold, Jasmine Power has just written the soundtrack for that moment. On her new single “Leap”, the Welsh singer, pianist and songwriter turns courage, homesickness and big-dream energy into a cinematic pop anthem that feels like standing on a train platform with your suitcase in one hand and your heart in the other.
“Leap” moves through soaring melodies, tender piano lines and widescreen pop production, telling the story of leaving home, chasing something bigger, and holding onto the people and places that shaped you along the way. It is heartfelt, hopeful and gently euphoric, the kind of song that makes you want to cry a little and book a plane ticket immediately after.
At its core, the track is about sacrifice, bravery and the quiet magic of choosing yourself even when it hurts. Jasmine weaves in the Welsh concept of Hiraeth; that deep, untranslatable longing for home, time and belonging, giving the song an emotional depth that lingers long after the final chorus fades. You can hear it in every goodbye, every train station image, and every promise to come back stronger.
That joyful fearlessness runs straight through the heart of the song. Lines about stepping onto trains, leaving loved ones behind and singing to crowds feel deeply personal, but also universal. Anyone who has ever left their hometown, changed careers, moved countries, or taken a risk that scared them silly will recognize themselves in this track.
What makes “Leap” so special is how it balances ambition with tenderness. It is not just a big dreamer anthem. It is a love letter to home, to family, to partners waiting back on the platform, and to the younger version of yourself who hoped you would be brave enough to try.
If you need a little push to finally do the scary thing you have been putting off, Jasmine Power just gave you permission.
