Jacotene releases "Stronger"

Late night pleas and early morning regrets; inner heartbreak and widescreen emotions - welcome to the vividly cinematic, tear-stained yet darkly glamorous world of bright young thing JACOTÉNE, who today releases new single ‘Stronger’.

JACOTENE’s mix of defiantly unfiltered lyricism, achingly lush melodies and unapologetic grit have marked her out as a star who is undeniably and inarguably on the rise. But whereas previous single ‘Stop Calling’ was all warm, bluesy Motown soul, ‘Stronger’ is something else entirely – a gorgeously rueful and reflective dissection of a relationship fraying at the seams perfect for the wee hours, with JACOTÉNE sighing “I was going nowhere/ but you took me there faster” as shimmering piano and guitar lines twinkle and cascade all around her.

In her own words; “’Stronger’ comes from inner dialogue, much like most of the songs from my upcoming EP. This song reflects my faith and the guidance I seek from it. This song was written during a dark time, and I was searching for some answers and advice. Sometimes when I don’t feel that I have the strength within me, I lean on my loved ones and faith, hoping that these two things will show me the way.”

Named as one of NME’s 100 of 2025, she is also currently on the cover of 10 Magazine Australia.

In the past year JACOTÉNE has played a string of festivals and live dates including her own sold-out headline show in the UK, a support slot for G FLIP on their Melbourne and Adelaide tour dates, and Tems in Sydney and Melbourne, and recently played in Germany, UK, Belgium, and The Netherlands. She has all the makings of a smart, soulful and utterly and elegantly distinctive new voice so watch this space.
