Jacques PÉNA delivers poetic soundscapes with “A Nevers en Hiver (court)”
French singer-songwriter Jacques PÉNA bares his soul in new single “A Nevers en Hiver (court)” where pop-rock meets blues to deliver a timeless yet intensely intimate soundscape.
PÉNA has always been word-paired heavily with emotion, and here he demonstrates that when melody is added to the mix, his poetry holds even greater weight still. The song sighs with authenticity, conveying the lows and highs, as well as the small, observe-and-absorb moments of an artist who has carved out their own creative lane.
The arrangements on “A Nevers en Hiver (court)” are brilliant and impassioned, the result of Stéphane Bertin’s guitar playing adding grit and sleekness to the song. Laurent Kremer’s sumptuous saxophone serves as the perfect foil for PÉNA’s immediately recognizable vocal style, stoking the fires of memories. The result is a song that haunts, bringing you back to the power of music’s ability to tell stories and evoke memories.
“A Nevers en Hiver (court)” transcends the realm of genre and should speak to anyone who has felt the weight of beginnings and the beauty inherent in progress. For PÉNA, it’s a chapter in his universe, and each lyric and note pulsates with the heartbeat of his journey.
In a landscape where music has all too often come to feel like a formula, Jacques PÉNA embraces honesty and makes the sound he needs to hear raw, human, and deeply, thoroughly experienced. For “A Nevers en Hiver (court),” he’s sharing an experience, one that’s as poetic as it is musical.
