Sur mes gardes

Description

At just 20 years old, she has already released an album produced by Bertignac, entirely written and composed by herself. Joyce Jonathan is part of the liberated generation of girls who move fast, hit hard, and see far. She can be compared to singers like Yaël Naim, for the purity of her voice and guitar playing; Amy MacDonald for her exuberance and knack for crafting instantly memorable melodies; Rose for the charming blend of naivety and maturity in her lyrics; and Coeur de Pirate for the 'delightfully romantic' aspect of her simple folk pop. But Joyce is truly unique in her own right. She is the first female artist to emerge from the phenomenon label 'My MajorCompany', with Grégoire being the first male singer. Launched online at 18, she quickly found her 486 producers and the 70,000 euros needed to produce her album. Moreover, her ability to evoke emotion in the listener with just a word or a soft, silky inflection of her voice is hers alone. This vibrant girl has been making efforts since she was born, or almost. The effort, first, to hide her existence from music. Not a desire for the glitz and glamour of fame, but a serious passion that is surprising at her age, which led her, at around seven, to start writing songs. She will then make the effort to dig deeper, day after day, into the groove that is within her.
