00:00Salut tout le monde, c'est Théolien Moss et je suis ici aujourd'hui avec Jean Amoré

00:03juste avant son concert à Paris. Comment vas-tu ?

00:05C'est génial, je suis tellement excitée pour le show aujourd'hui.

00:07Moi aussi.

00:08Je suis heureux d'être là, c'est trop longtemps.

00:14Fun fact, tu sais qu'il y a un endroit en Paris qui s'appelle Le Marais ?

00:19J'ai vu des photos, mais je n'ai jamais été. Je pense que je devrais aller.

00:23Oui, tu devrais aller, c'est assez beau.

00:25Pour commencer cette interview, pouvez-vous vous présenter un peu de mots pour ceux qui sont watching ?

00:30Hey, je suis Jean Amoré. Je suis un singeur.

00:35J'étais dans une bandage de boys.

00:37Maintenant, je suis un artiste solo et je suis en premier tour européen.

00:43Je suis tellement excitée.

00:45Et comment a la transition à une carrière de solo ?

00:48C'était très bien.

00:49C'était difficile à l'aider.

00:50C'était difficile à l'aider, en tant que je suis, et tout ce que j'ai été.

00:55Et tout ce que j'ai eu, et tout ce que j'ai eu,

00:57et tout ce que j'ai eu, c'était très difficile.

00:58Mais ça m'a fait que ça, quand j'ai commencé à faire mieux.

01:01Tu as récemment l'aider, l'aider.

01:02Tu as récemment l'aider de l'indépendant record label.

01:05Oui.

01:06Donc, ce qui m'a fait que tu a pris ce step ?

01:09Parce que je pense que c'est un step énorme pour des artistes.

01:11Pour des artistes, tu sais ?

01:12Oui.

01:13Oui.

01:14Je pense que j'ai eu de l'indépendant dans le passé,

01:18avec l'industrie,

01:21ce n'était pas le meilleur pour moi quand j'étais jeune.

01:23Et j'avais juste une vision pour comment les choses devraient être faits,

01:28et la type de vibe que j'ai voulu autour de moi.

01:32Et c'était toujours un step dans cette direction.

01:34C'est juste comme,

01:35« Ok, je peux curer ça maintenant. »

01:38Tu as récemment l'aider, « Better Place » un mois avant.

01:41Tu peux nous dire un peu plus sur cette chanson ?

01:44« Better Place »

01:46C'est une chanson vraiment spéciale.

02:00Je l'ai fait avec des amis en L.A.

02:03My producer Ryan,

02:05when I first met him a couple of years ago,

02:07he had a version of Better Place that he played me.

02:09And it was kind of a demo.

02:11And I was just like,

02:12« Whoa, this is so cool. »

02:13And he's like, « Do you like it ? »

02:14I was like, « Yes ! »

02:15But I just didn't have the words to write it yet.

02:18And so we tried so many different versions of it and everything,

02:22and it just never quite landed until in the last six months,

02:26when we finally kind of...

02:28I feel like I kind of was going through a hard time back then,

02:31and then I had to push through it.

02:33And now that I'm doing better,

02:34I could reflect on it and say,

02:36what might have been nice to hear someone say, you know ?

02:40And that's kind of where I wrote it from.

02:42Yeah.

02:43And what are the music influences ?

02:44Because I feel like there's such a gospel vibe to it.

02:48Yeah.

02:49Like I really love the choir and everything.

02:51Yeah.

02:52Definitely a gospel vibe.

02:54I love that choir.

02:57It's funny you say that.

02:59My dad's a local singer in Minnesota,

03:02and so he always sang with this guy named Robert Robinson

03:08when I was younger going to his gigs,

03:11and there's this amazing voice-sounding guy,

03:14and he has a choir with him.

03:16And so when we had Better Place,

03:18I was just like, this is the perfect vibe.

03:20And so we flew to my hometown and tracked Robert.

03:22Okay.

03:23So that was a full circle moment for sure.

03:25And yeah, such a special song.

03:29I really like it.

03:30I really loved it too.

03:31And you also teased a new song on Instagram called More Than Enough.

03:35Fix you, gotta wanna fix you, gotta wanna tell you

03:40that you're more than enough, but now it's too late to sing.

03:44Could you tell us a little bit more about this new song?

03:47First of all, I just really like the song a lot,

03:49and it feels kind of like an anthem,

03:52like a lot of people can sing it.

03:54I've been doing it in the shows,

03:55and last night in London it was like everyone was singing,

03:58and I was like, oh my gosh.

04:00I forgot to tell you, you're more than enough,

04:03and now it's too late to sing.

04:05I forgot to tell you, I forgot to tell you, you're more than enough.

04:12So it's been really fun, and it just feels like an important song,

04:18and it feels raw and honest, and just reflecting, I guess,

04:23back on a couple years ago, and sort of trying to tell my own self,

04:28but also everybody else that you're more than enough.

04:32That's a lovely message.

04:34And are you working on an album,

04:36or are you more like releasing some singles here and there?

04:40I haven't really been thinking about it as much.

04:43I'm more just creating, and then wherever, however it comes out,

04:48that'll be great.

04:49But yeah, I have an EP coming out.

04:51Okay, that's cool.

04:52May 16th.

04:53Okay.

04:54And then after that, I'll probably have some music come out,

04:58maybe towards the end of summer.

04:59Okay, great.

05:00Next, but I'm not stopping anytime soon.

05:03Give me more on a weekend, baby.

05:05Cause you know what I've needed lately.

05:08I've been holding on too long.

05:11Yeah, yeah.

05:12How's the tour going so far?

05:14So fun.

05:15So fun.

05:16I mean, definitely jet lag at the beginning, like, flying over.

05:19Of course.

05:20I was like, what's going on?

05:21But now we're a few days in, so I'm like kind of adjusted,

05:25and it's so special to go so far from where I grew up,

05:29and there are people that are coming out.

05:30Yeah, that's crazy.

05:31I'm so excited to sing songs with, like, it's just wild.

05:34And to wrap up this interview, do you have a message for your French fans

05:38who are already waiting for you in the crowd?

05:40I just love you guys.

05:43Thank you for waiting all these years for me to come back,

05:46and I can't wait to come back again.

05:48And I'm so grateful for everything,

05:51and I feel like we've grown up together at this point.

05:54Yeah, I just love you.

05:56You're more than enough.

05:57Thank you so much for this interview.

06:00Thank you.

06:01And to everyone watching, make sure to go stream Better Place.

06:03Yes.
