Jenny Räisänen’s latest single “Breathe” is a powerful addition to her growing repertoire. This haunting, introspective track showcases her talent for blending vulnerability and strength in her music. “Breathe” isn’t just a song – it’s a lifeline for anyone going through tough times.
The track opens with soft piano notes, setting the stage for a minimalist yet emotionally charged ballad. Jenny’s voice enters with raw sincerity, each word carrying weight. The sparse instrumentation – just enough violin and guitar to support without overwhelming – gives “Breathe” an almost ethereal quality. Listeners can immerse themselves in the music, feeling every pause and moment of vulnerability.
Lyrically, “Breathe” strikes a balance between personal and universal. Jenny’s message is simple but profound: when life feels impossible, sometimes just breathing is enough. It’s a reminder to stay grounded in the present and find strength in simply surviving.
Jenny’s artistic growth since her debut “In A Whisper” is clear. While “Breathe” echoes past hits like “The Past Don’t Exist Anymore” and “The Rain Is Not Far,” it adds a new layer of introspective depth. It’s the kind of track that stays with you long after it ends.
Collaborating with producer Juhani Konttinen and violinist Eilidh Pope brings added sophistication to the track. The production is both cinematic and intimate, pulling listeners in and refusing to let go. The gentle ebb and flow of the melody mirrors life’s emotional ups and downs, with Jenny’s whispered vocals guiding us through.
“Breathe” not only delivers an emotionally charged anthem but also cements Jenny Räisänen’s status as an artist to watch. If this single is any indication, her upcoming sophomore album promises to continue her deeply personal storytelling style.
We’re eagerly anticipating Jenny’s next release, and “Breathe” has certainly set high expectations for what’s to come.
