It’s not very often you’ll find a French soloist popping up on these pages so when you do see it you know it’s going to be worth it. “Les lumières de la ville” from Jeanne Bonjour is that moment today.

A striking spotlight on the strife still beleaguering women, this alt-pop throw down dominates frequencies with its encouraging use of an incandescent-rock edge and polished chansonnery. But not to be outdone, our candid cantor bears witness to these tumutlous times with a verse and hook that is both inspiring and ultimately universal.
