Janeuary, a captivating alternative pop singer-songwriter from Ukraine, has emerged as a force of deep emotion and philosophical resonance in the music world. Known for her raw sincerity and emotional depth, Janeuary transforms every composition into a profoundly intimate experience. Each note she writes, and every melody she crafts, reflects the pulse of her soul, captivating listeners globally.
No News but Muse
On June 16, 2023, Janeuary released No News but Muse, a daring 16-track instrumental album (no vocals). Its cinematic soundscapes resonated with artists worldwide, becoming a soundtrack for various artists. They have used her music as soundtracks to their works, including Masaki (Japan) and Harry Ergott (Austria). The dancers chose the singer’s tracks for their choreography. In addition, the beautiful charity concert was held in the botanical garden of Kyiv with the participation of People’s Artists of Ukraine, soloists of the National Opera.
Heart Exposure Symphony
In November 2023, Janeuary introduced her ethereal voice with the single Heart Exposure Symphony, a significant shift from her instrumental roots. Enriched with the grandeur of piano, violins, cellos, and contrabasses, this symphony was recorded with Ukraine’s top classical musicians. The music video, filmed in the iconic National Philharmonic of Ukraine, marked her as the only artist granted this honor. This track bridged her instrumental expertise with vocal storytelling, cementing her place as a multifaceted composer.
In My Damn Head and Everest
In My Damn Head, her next single, stormed Spotify in late 2023, making its way onto nearly 300 playlists. But Janeuary’s defining moment came with Everest, released on February 2, 2024. She embarked on a real expedition to Mount Everest, filming a raw, phone-shot music video amidst its majestic peaks. Her vulnerability, with no makeup and raw emotions on display, left fans awestruck. For Janeuary, conquering Everest was more than a personal dream—it symbolized the emotional peaks she reaches in her music.
Back Where I Belong and Awakening
Her singles Back Where I Belong and Awakening captivated international audiences, earning praise from magazines like Beach House, Illustrate Magazine, and Clout. Blogs and media outlets from France, Germany, the U.S., Mexico, Canada, and Japan celebrated her unique artistic vision, propelling her into global stardom.
Nineteen Nights
Janeuary’s July 19, 2024 album Nineteen Nights explores love through 19 stories. Inspired by Jeff Buckley’s philosophy that “making music is making love,” the album blends alternative pop with classical instruments, creating a lush, melancholic, and cinematic sound. The piano, viola, cello, contrabass, and saxophone weave a tapestry of emotion, embodying Janeuary’s dedication to thoughtful, evocative music.
Earendel EP
Surprising fans on September 27, 2024, Janeuary dropped Earendel, a six-track electronic EP diverging from her usual sound. Atmospheric beats and her magnetic, velvet vocals redefine her artistry. The standout track, Viens avec moi, showcases her versatility by singing in French. Collaborating with Ukrainian musician Esolate on the Close Your Eyes remix, Janeuary expands her sonic horizons.
The EP’s title track Earendel draws from Old English, meaning “shining light” or “morning star.” This cosmic inspiration mirrors the actual star Earendel, one of the universe’s most distant and luminous celestial bodies. Its music video, where Janeuary dances with two royal pythons in a noir Hollywood atmosphere, stunned fans, pushing artistic boundaries. Janeuary’s love for animals made this bold choice feel natural, as she fused elegance with a daring edge.
Janeuary’s approach to music is fearless. “Every time I go to the studio, I do everything to the best of my ability, just like for the last time. It’s like I’m going to die tomorrow,” she confesses. This intensity defines her music—a constant pursuit of raw truth and emotional depth, making Janeuary one of the most compelling voices in alternative pop today.
