PAON
Active since:
PAON (peacock) is an avant-garde jazz band composed of multi genre singer-songwriter Pernelle and virtuoso music producer Lemm.
The project arose from a creative symbiosis between the two artists, whose musical collaboration was sparked by a shared fascination with interdimensional expression.
The story explores the idea that the imagination transcends physical reality, positing that celestial bodies are dreams personified on a cosmic scale.
Our music finds its authenticity from experimentation and genre fusion, within a science-fiction aesthetic. Blending sophisticated groovy sounds and elements of jazz, rock, ambient or rap into a cinematic storm fuelled by a mystical narrative, PAON is a very unique journey to experience.

While her own compositions carry nuances of folk, blues and chanson, she has expressed herself in the jazz tradition touring with Archie Shepp, and also revisited classical repertoire.
Raised in a musical family where lullabies echoed Michel Legrand and her grandfather played Nat King Cole at the piano, she discovered early on the intimate link between song and emotion.
