JANE
“Moon” by JANE is out now and it is one of the most captivating songs I’ve heard lately.
Produced by Eric Zayne, the latest single offers a unique universe that combines rock and pop. Accompanied by her haunting melodies and magical vocals, the psychedelic production perfectly blends with her storytelling. “Moon” is incredible. It is clear that the 17 year old artist has a true musical identity and I cannot wait to hear more.
She will be releasing her brand new EP later this year, but for now, go stream “Moon”, now !
