  • Off-kilter, life-affirming experimental pop music.

  • Jeannel is on a journey towards healing and self-acceptance. The experimental Dutch artist describes her new single "Horses" as "a love song to the child that feels different and misunderstood." The track kicks off with a hesitant stagger, eventually galloping into something rich and uncompromising. Lush bells and strings accompany Jeannel's wistful falsetto as she sings affirmations that are as wholesome as the instrumentation: "You're a mermaid, you're a firefly," she whispers. By equating her younger self to these strange and mythical creatures, Jeannel redresses otherness as a superpower, one that's far too potent to be repressed for any longer.
