Jeannel

"Unveiling the stirring new single ‘BLUE’, jazz-educated singer-songwriter Jeannel weaves together her myriad of musical talents to capture love’s complexity. A level up from alternative, Jeannel is a multi-talented musician making avant-garde music. Her new single, ‘BLUE’, released today and accompanied by a music video, indeed exists in a genre of its own – one where live cello meets R&B chorals and baroque pop production. The track is a tender exploration of the risk and rapture of romantic love, its unique, nuanced sonics offering new perspectives to the subject we still struggle to articulate. Hailing from Cologne, where she studied jazz singing and classical cello at the coveted Music Conservatory, Jeannel’s artistry is rooted in eclectic influences. The cello was her first calling, which she started playing at age seven, and is today a distinctive feature of her sound. Based in Berlin, Jeannel sits at the cutting edge of a non-conformist creative scene; she has captivated not only the music industry – Resident Advisor, NTS Radio and a host of international festivals have all booked her Though Jeannel couldn’t be less mainstream, her name is causing a buzz and will undoubtedly be on many people’s lips soon. On 2022’s EP Black Sesame she dances the borders of R&B, trip-hop, avant-pop and neo-classical, whilst intelligently exploring the deep waters of sexuality, love and the subconscious." - NOTION
