Jain

Jain is the kind of artist I keep returning to because her sound refuses borders. Born Jeanne Galice in Toulouse, she folds African and Middle-Eastern rhythms into French pop until the groove just moves you. Being discovered off MySpace demos feels fittingly modern, and winning a Victoires de la Musique in 2017 plus an NRJ Award the next year shows her home country crowned her, not just niche fans. There's a lovely contrast between her small frame and the big, polyrhythmic energy she conjures. I deeply admire musicians who travel the world through their ears and bring it all home, and she does.
