Liverpool-based songwriter and artist Jennifer Ness kicks off 2026 with her empowering new single, “Over Proud”, a dance-pop anthem rooted in body positivity, self-acceptance, and unapologetic confidence. The track blends vibrant 80s-inspired synths with modern electronic production, delivering an infectious, feel-good energy that encourages listeners to embrace themselves without compromise.
Drawing inspiration from the self-empowerment of Lady Gaga and the boldness of Madonna’s Vogue era, Ness channels both warmth and defiance through soaring melodies and a celebratory pulse. “Over Proud” is designed for movement, celebration, and reclaiming space, an uplifting statement that is as personal as it is universally resonant.
With a deep connection to family and community, her recordings often feature contributions from loved ones and even her pet, Ness imbues her music with authenticity and intimacy.
“I wrote ‘Over Proud’ because I don’t want my daughter, or anyone, believing they need to change themselves to be worthy… Confidence isn’t something you earn, it’s something you claim.”
With echoes of Pet Shop Boys-style synth pop meeting modern female power pop, “Over Proud” positions Jennifer Ness as a radiant, confident voice in contemporary pop—an artist building momentum on her own terms.
