In an industry constantly seeking fresh voices, Jazzy Fauchere stands out with her authentic
storytelling and evolving sound. From childhood inspirations rooted in pop culture to navigating
the challenges of a solo career, Fauchere’s journey is a testament to her dedication. In this
exclusive Q&A, she opens up about her creative process, the personal experiences that fuel her
lyrics, and her vision for forging genuine connections with listeners worldwide.

What first inspired you to pursue a career in music?

Ever since I was a kid, I’ve always been doing things that involve music, from starting
competitive dance at a young age to also doing musical theater as a very young kid. Not only
that, but when I was a toddler my sister and I were obsessed with Hannah Montana, so I feel
like growing up and watching all these pop stars really inspires me to create my own music.

Who are your biggest musical influences, and how have they shaped your sound?

My music is inspired by a mix of artists I really love. PinkPantheress’s sound really
inspires me, especially her melodies, she really gets creative with it.Brent Faiyaz and SZA
helped me be more honest in my lyrics. Britney Spears and Ariana Grande showed me how fun
and catchy pop can be. I try to mix all of that into something that feels real but still sounds good.

How has your music evolved from when you first started to where you are now?

I definitely think my music has evolved in many different ways since I started. I find my
sound changes very frequently, I think that’s just part of the process of an artist developing. I
feel like every time I finish a new track I learn something new every time out of it, which is in my
opinion very important for an artist. Not only do I want my listeners taking things away from my
music, but I want to take away learning something new whenever I make a song.

Can you walk us through your creative process when writing a new song?

My creative process has definitely stayed consistent over the past couple of years
specifically with finding a concept, situations I experience in my life I will write about in notes
app and write it down how I’m feeling/what happened at that moment. Then, this provides me
with lots of ideas whenever I write a new song.

Do you start with lyrics, melodies, or a concept when creating a new track?

When I start a song, I come up with my concept before we start producing the track. Not
only do I want the concept/story being conveyed in the lyrics but also throughout the track, so I
always try to resemble the story throughout the track as best as I can. Then we’ll move on to
brainstorming melodies, if I get lyric ideas I’ll throw them in. Usually I go straight to melodies
after that, then move onto lyrics. The process of creating music is one of the main reasons why I
do music because such time and effort goes into this process, it’s really special when you listen
to the finished product.

How do you handle creative blocks or moments when inspiration is hard to find?

Whenever I have creative blocks or moments when Inspirations hard to find, I said this
earlier, but referring back to my note’s app, I want to say this is probably my most used app
because every day things that occur in my life I write down almost like journaling which helps
when I write. For me, I feel like if I don’t write important things down that happens in my life and
my feelings at that moment, I can forget how I was feeling or what was going through my head
at that time.

What do you want listeners to feel or take away from your music?

Everything I write is about a personal experience of mine. You might have gone through
the same situation as me, or not. Either way, when people hear my music, I want them
to relate to the song with their own story, regardless if you have gone through it or not.
This is EXTREMELY important to me, as my priority is to ensure a true, authentic
connection between me and the listener.

What’s the story behind your latest single/album?

My latest single, “Polaroid” is about connecting the idea of men being toxic to disposable
cameras/Polaroids. More specifically, men meeting a girl going out with them for a couple of
months, showing they want long term and all of a sudden out of the blue they become
INCREDIBLY distant in just a day. Fully, just cutting off communication making someone feel
worthless. I know this is something everyone can relate to as this is something that
unfortunately happens frequently.During the writing process, we took a lot of time to think of how we can connect the
toxicity in a relationship to a Polaroid/disposable camera. Short term focus, camera takes a
quick click and that’s how fast it they can switch up. The picture can look perfect, but there’s
way more going on between the individuals that no one knows about. Then just like the saying
“they always come back” it’s too late, relating to throwing out the camera. Those are just some
examples of how we approached this concept in the writing process.

Do you have any memorable moments from working with other artists or producers?

A lot of my memorable moments happen when I’m with my manager Andrew lane, he
also produces pretty much all of my music. When we first start producing a track we have a lot
of laughs and I always like to run by him when I write about, and he’s also someone that gives
me amazing advice, he really guides me through this industry as it comes with many obstacles.

If you could collaborate with any artist, past or present, who would it be and why?

If I could collaborate with any artist, it would probably be Tame Impala because I have so
much respect for everything he does in the music industry. Not only does he sing, but he knows
all aspects of music, writing, producing, etc. Most of the songs that we all know, he’s had
involvement in albums like Travis Scott’s and many more. If I had to choose one more artist, it
would be Ariana Grande. She’s what inspired me for pretty much everything that I’ve done in the
music industry. She has gone through a lot and has accomplished so much. Even though she’s
one of the biggest pop stars of the century, she was just in a wicked and involves herself in all
areas of the entertainment industry, which is my goal as well.

What has been your most memorable performance or tour experience so far?

My most memorable tour experience was probably my first ever tour and my first ever
show. If I could relive any night, it would be that night. It’s such a surreal experience that pushes
an artist to the next level and shows you what all the hard work is for. The energy from the
crowd and the feeling of being on stage for the first time is something I’ll never forget.

How do you connect with your audience during live shows or through your music?

When it comes to live shows, I like to be very interactive with my audience to let them
know that I acknowledge them and that I’m thankful they’re supporting me. Between songs, I
like to converse with my audience and see how they’re doing throughout the night. I also really
feel like I connect with my audience through my music when I perform I always try to write
stories that I’ve been through that my audience can connect to as well with their own stories,
experiencing that live is something really special to me.

What do you think is the most rewarding aspect of being a music artist?

In my opinion, I think the most rewarding aspect of being a music artist is listening to the
track the first time after it’s been finished. Artists take a lot of time and effort to put into their craft
when creating music, and having that first listen I think resembles the amount of hard work that
gets put into the process. Not only that, but whenever I show my family my new music, seeing
them be so proud and supportive for me is truly rewarding.

Has fan feedback ever influenced the direction of your music?

This happens pretty frequently actually, I always get feedback through my Instagram
messages, before I ever release a song I will tease it on my story for everyone and the amount
of amazing feedback I get really means a lot to me and I use it when I start a new song.
Challenges & Growth

What are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced in your music career, and how did
you overcome them?

I was in a very popular kids group when I was younger and when my contract finished,
separating myself from being an artist in a group to a single artist was definitely not easy to
transition to. I was really well known for being in that group, and it took about a year to fully fins
myself again, I think consistently creating new music helped me transition from a group member
to a single artist.

How do you balance staying true to your artistry while adapting to trends in the music
industry?

I try to stay true to my sound by always starting with what feels real to me. At the same
time, I pay attention to trends so I can find creative ways to fit in without losing myself. I’m still
growing, so I take in feedback but stay grounded in why I started making music. My goal is to
connect with people while staying authentic.

What message or legacy do you want to leave behind with your music?

I want my music to make people feel understood and less alone. I hope my songs can
help someone get through tough times, like music did for me. I want to be known for being real
and speaking my truth. Even if I only reach a few people, I want that connection to be honest
and deep. At the end of the day, I just want to leave something meaningful behind and
something that everyone can connect to.

Where do you see yourself and your music career in the next 5 years?

In the next 5 years, I see myself growing as an artist and reaching a bigger audience. I
want to be making music full-time and performing around the world. I hope to have a few
projects out that really reflect who I am. I want to keep getting better at my craft and working
with other talented people. Most of all, I see myself staying true to my passion and making
music that matters.

How do you stay motivated and passionate about creating new music?

Finding motivation I don’t ever really find hard when creating music, this is my number
one passion and whenever I get to create music, it’s something I really look forward to.
Sometimes it can be hard to find motivation when you’re having an off day, so turning to the
people that make you happy will definitely help seek motivation, and understanding that having
bad days is something everyone goes through, and that you’re never alone.
