Jazzboy Unveils Video for Jesus Jazz

Currently based in Paris, avant-pop writer and producer Jazzboy likes to blur the line. Playing his first ever solo show in an illegal art space in NYC where he played ‘Jesus Jazz’ to the crowd while covered in fake blood, the French artist fell in love with New York's underground scene and keeps flying over back and forth for more.

Jazzboy seems to enjoy every single part of the making of his art. While directing weird, yet viciously pop music videos around the globe seems to be his take on some kind of new internet cinema, the futuristic (and hectic) theatrical ‘Jazzodrome’ parties he regularly throws in Paris blend live performance with art installations. Producing forward-looking pop music in his tiny bedroom studio filled with odd broken gear and Matrix-like screens is ultimately what forms his very own world between pop music and avant-garde culture.

Jazzboy's debut effort Jesus Jazz stands out as something special, somewhere between an album, an EP and something different. “I crafted Jesus Jazz like a children’s book really. It’s not that long, not that short. It’s an imaged night tale with simple ideas of happiness, awakening, freedom and death. It asks simple questions without formulating any answers. I actually genuinely wish it is children-friendly in a way, like a modern digital tale or so.”
