Jasmine Catherine Unveils “The Dark Days” – A Cinematic-Pop Anthem of Forbidden Love, Dark Desires & Light Prevailing

Norwich-based singer-songwriter Jasmine Catherine steps into a world of sweeping orchestration, six-part vocal harmonies and distorted vocal textures with her upcoming single, The Dark Days, available October 30. Drawing inspiration from the high-fantasy epic ambience of the Shadow and Bone book series and the legendary soundtracks of Game of Thrones, Pirates of the Caribbean and The Lord of the Rings, the track fuses cinematic scope with pop sensibility to deliver something both grand and emotionally intimate.

At its heart, The Dark Days tells a story of forbidden love, dark desires and the ultimate triumph of light prevailing through the chaos. Jasmine conjures worlds where shadows clash with hope, where orchestral strings underscore the ache of longing and six-part harmonies soar above a landscape of resistance and redemption. With haunting, distorted background vocals carving through the swell of instrumentation, the song captures a moment of transformation: falling into darkness, only to rise again in luminous revolt.

Jasmine says:

“I wanted to create a song that felt like walking across broken battlegrounds and finding something pure in the ashes, a song that resembles a battle of destiny and desire. The idea of forbidden love and dark desire seemed tied to that moment of reckoning — and when the light prevails, it doesn’t feel easy. It feels hard-won.”

Born from Jasmine’s lifelong love of fantasy and storytelling, The Dark Days marks the next chapter in her evolution as an artist who doesn’t just make songs — she builds worlds. Fans of cinematic composers like John Williams, Hans Zimmer and John Powell will feel the whisper of familiar greatness, while pop audiences will be drawn in by the immediacy of melody and hook.
