Description

Presented by W Live (LD-21-000489 & LD-21-000490) A daydreamer, Jérémy Frérot loves utopias, ideas in their nascent stages, and their realization. Sincere and moving, his music is the fruit of a quest for balance and a creative process free from artifice. Melancholy and self-deprecation intersect weightlessly in a rich counterpoint. At a time when music is increasingly made with software, making the presence of instrumentalists seem secondary, Jérémy Frérot is part of a new scene of French musicians capable of navigating electro and synth-pop as easily as through stripped-down orchestration and organic sounds, giving the exhilarating sensation of listening to live music. After six successful years as part of the hit duo Frero Delavega, Jérémy Frérot launched his solo career in 2017 and quickly made his mark with his debut album, Matriochka (2018), followed by Meilleure vie (2021), both certified gold. These albums featured songs addressing sensitive themes such as ecology and respect for the ocean, a passion for this artist who lives on the Atlantic coast. Since then, he has enjoyed a string of hits with metronomic regularity. For two years, away from the airwaves and concert halls, he took the time to reflect on his life, make important choices, and let his writing flow.
