• Plus a lot of more fan stories. I know that a lot of you would like to have a printed version of this beautiful fan magazine and I have good news for you: Due to popular demand, we are planning to release a printed version in a special, highly collectable limited edition for issue numbers 3 and 5. Some of the images are exclusive to the magazine, never published elsewhere. The work on this is still going on but I’m happy to say that you can maybe pre order those limited editions very soon!
Back to Jasmine, who spent a full month in the US and worked with great people on her upcoming new album. In this issue we take a closer look at those people: Who are they? What have they done so far? And I’m sure you’ll be very impressed by their curriculum vitae. Home in London, Jasmine is supporting Robin Schulz on his tour across Europe in March. There are also gigs in South Africa and Hungary and I’m sure there are many more live shows coming
with our young star in 2016! A huge thanks to Anis, who did again an outstanding job with the design, and Kunwar for the proofreading! Also a massive thanks to Lucy and her father who was both very supportive on Lucy’s featuring and the great photos. Thank you Annie for the pictures of Jasmine and of course a massive thanks to everyone of you who reads our great fan magazine about Jasmine Thompson so far! The next issue
will be released in the Summer and I’m really looking forward to this issue as well. With lots of love from Germany.

Our young star—Jasmine Thompson— was there, Los Angeles, United States
The beautiful city on the west coast of the USA is not only famous for the golden gate bridge, the Hollywood studios and the awesome beach, but also for the many music studios. During Jasmine’s full month in LA she was in a studio every day and worked together with great people on her next album. Let’s take a closer look on those people. ► april 2016 / jasmag

FANS’ STORIES
I met Jasmine in Hamburg! (by Henrike) Today was a very special day for me and my friend, because we had the chance to meet Jasmine Thompson. We were in Hamburg at the Sporthalle at 3 o’clock.

jasmag / issue no.5
We were a little early in Hamburg because we thought that we would see Jasmine at 4pm, but I got a message that she had time for us at 6:30pm.
That’s why we had time to meet another Jasmine Thompson fan called Julchen. We waited with Julchen in front of the Sporthalle. We listened
‘‘
When I was at home, I still had not realized what had happened that day...’’ to ‘‘Sun goes down’’ at a loud volume. All the other people stared at us because we sang along very loudly. Later I saw a woman with many diffe-
rent clothes over her arm. I wondered Why someone had so many extra clothes at a concert. I realized a second later that it was Annie, and next to Annie was Jasmine. I was so excited, I ran to her and I said ‘‘Willkomen in Germany’’ I gave Jasmine a big hug and we took selfies. She had to go straight on for a soundcheck. Later, Annie picked us up so we could see Jasmine again. We took more selfies and we made a photobombing video with William, Annie, Anura Julchen and Jasmine on
her snapchat, this video is so funny! At 9 o’clock the concert started with DJ Robin Schulz. It was an amazing show! At the end of the concert, it was time to say goodbye to my new awesome friends (Gergana, Pati and Julchen). We shared our phone numbers and we said goodbye. When I was at home, I still had not realized what had happened that day. AMAZING!

What is wron One day in 2014 I was starting to like some new songs and one song came to my mind. This song was called ‘‘Take Me To Church’’ by Hozier! It was a really good song! A few minutes later after the song finished I looked up on YouTube covers of it because I like to listen to other people sing the songs I liked! I scrolled through the suggestions and there was lots. I pressed on one cover and it was good and I looked at another different one until there was this one that looked cool! This cover was sung by a beautiful young lady she was adorable! I listened to her cover and it was OK, I wasn’t sure if I liked it. But the next day when I got bored I thought to myself I’m going to listen to that cover agian of ‘‘Take Me To Church’’ by that adorable young lady. I listened to the cover agian and I thought what the hell was wrong with me this cover is amazing! I thought this girl has

a voice of an angel— she was fabulous! So I looked at her YouTube channel and her name was ‘‘TantrumJas’’! So I subscribed to her and listened to her other covers and her official songs and they were amazing! I started to follow—TantrumJas—on every social media site she was on and that was how I found out her name it was Jasmine Thompson! And from then on I have loved Jasmine more than I have loved anything else! I now ADORE Jasmine and now we’re like Internet besties! When I started to love ‘‘Jas’’ so much I made a fanpage for her on Instagram and its called ‘‘abundleoftantrumjas’’! I can now officially say that I am a TANTRUMNATOR! Forever and ever and always! She deserves our support!

The Kindest Person Devon has ever met I want to tell you how I met Jasmine the 1st time. It was a normal day like any other, then I saw on Twitter that Jasmine was on tour with Ella Eyre in Germany. One of the tour stops in Cologne, which was not far away from me. I asked my mother if I can go there but there were some problems! 1, it was on Sunday. 2, it was a little bit late. And 3, next day was school, so no chance! But some days later I asked my mother again, this time she said yes, I was so happy at this moment! My mother sent me a picture of the tickets while I was at

Then was the 20th September. My father and me were on the way to Cologne, we walked a little bit in the city. Then we went to the concert and waited to go in. As the concert started, I heard her voice the first time, it was so magical! And after the concert finished, I searched Jasmine but I didn’t found her
outside, I go again in but again, she wasn’t there... Again we go outside and then was there, I took a photo with her and she signed my ticket. Jasmine is the kindest person who I ever met! That was my best day EVER!

Gina is totally in Hey Guys! I’m Gina, and I’m still learning English, sorry... The first time I heard Jasmine was in the car, on the radio. It was in 2014 or in 2015, I don’t know… It was the song ‘‘Sun goes down’’ from Jasmine and Robin Schulz. On the radio the newsreader said: ‘‘And now comes the great singer Jasmine Thompson with Robin Schulz, then Jasmine was only 14, and she is a famous singer.’’ Then I had searched on Google, and I found her.

I watched her videos on YouTube. Her voice is so beautiful—I loved it! And I downloaded her songs. My favourites are ‘‘Adore’’, ‘‘Ain’t nobody’’, ‘‘Sun goes down’’, ‘‘Do it now’’, and all others! Then I followed her on Instagram, Twitter and on Facebook. I love her—she is perfect! And in 2015 she got her own application, I downloaded it, I have it now too, I like it! The first time that she answered me I was so happy! I can’t say how happy I was. I’ll send her
love! a letter soon, I hope she’ll answer me. And now she is 15 years old, and I’m a big fan of her. I can’t say how much I love her... I love her eyes, her hair, her voice, her nails, her everything! I’m proud of Jas! I hope I can meet her one day—I hope she will come to Germany soon. I wish you all a great day. Thanks!

Story Cherwin’s I want to tell my story on how I found the beautiful voice of jasmine! So I will just start from the beginning the first time I heard Jasmine’s voice was when I was in a car driving to a football match. It was around June 2015 if I remember it well. While we were driving to the match the song ‘‘Ain’t Nobody’’ came up on the radio. Since that moment in the car I listend the song like 3 or 4 times a day for a couple of days I

just couldn’t get enough of it. After those few days I was looking for the names who made this song (Ain’t Nobody). Then I found it was from Felix Jaehn and Jasmine Thompson, I never had heard of the two before and because I loved the voice of Jasmine in the song Ain’t Nobody I was looking if she had more songs. And that was the first time I looked on her YouTube channel. The first cover I found
Released in 2015, ‘‘Ain’t Nobody (Loves Me Better)’’ by Felix Jaehn and Jasmine Thompson
‘‘
And now I’m very proud that I am a fan of Jasmine because her voice is so beautiful and all the other fans are just so amazing to talk with.’’ was ‘‘Mad World’’ and after I listend to that I directly subscribed on her because it was just amazing, the voice it was really beautiful. For like two days long I was listening to all her covers and songs and I was turning in to a fan at that moment. I looked on Twitter for her, Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook all the social media. That is my story on how I found Jasmine Thompson. And now I’m very proud
that I am a fan of Jasmine because her voice is so beautiful and all the other fans are just so amazing to talk with. I listen to Jasmine’s music everyday and I just can’t get enough of it. It just makes me smile and makes me feel better if it’s not going well. And she just keep surprising me with her voice how beautiful it is. That was my story! Thank you Stefan that I can do this! And for all the things you do for Jasmine. And I
want to thank Jasmine for all the things she does do. She makes me smile everyday and I really hope that I can have the oppurtinity to meet her one day so we can make a selfie and I can get a autograph of her and just talk to her for a few minutes.

Adele has been like a massive inspiration to me since I was 10 or 11.’’
Lucy Foggo 15 Years old Singer, Songwriter United Kingdom
Lucy Foggo It’s always hard for me to choose a featured artist for our little fan magazine. I get a lot of requests from other managements to feature their artist. But—and I still stand to that—we are trying to put the spotlight on those
artists who don’t have a big management or even a record label in the background. That’s why I’m very happy that we have with Lucy Foggo another great upcoming artist in the first issue of 2016. ► april 2016 / jasmag

‘‘Adele has been like a massive inspiration to me since I was 10 or 11’’ said our featured artist in her cover video of Adele’s ‘‘Make You Feel My Love’’. Lucy started her YouTube channel back in 2013 with a fan video of Jasmine Thompson’s original song ‘‘Run’’. Just a few month later she uploaded her
‘‘Adore’’ was just one highlight for me from Lucy in 2015, because this interpretation showed us the very soft voice from our featured artist. But if you take a look on her ‘‘Wherever You Will Go’’ cover on YouTube you can also get the feeling from the powerful side of Lucy’s voice.
