The band Jannabi has announced a new journey starting from questions about the essence of music.
The band Jannabi has begun their comeback preparations by unveiling a prologue self-interview and a new profile ahead of the release of their fourth studio album on the 28th.
This self-interview hinted at the philosophy and direction of the album, which stems from the fundamental question, 'What is music?' The members conveyed that they expressed music in their own unique way, centering around the keywords of joy, essence, and freedom throughout the work.
Choi Jeong-hoon reflected on when he began to accept music as a profession and noted that he wanted to return to the original emotion of joy. He further explained that this work is "a journey that honestly captures the gap between fantasy and reality."
Kim Do-hyung also mentioned that he focused on creating music in a more intuitive and free manner, breaking away from conventional methods. Instead of worrying about the completeness of the work, he followed the emotions and inspirations of the moment, adding that it resulted in an album that holds special meaning for him.
The two members commonly mentioned that through this album, they aimed to express nostalgia for the past, or 'nostalgia,' in Jannabi's unique way. It is not merely a simple retro, but rather an approach closer to a sound collage edited with modern sensibilities, indicating that the fourth studio album will showcase a different musical color.
The profile released together further heightened expectations for the comeback. It captured Jannabi's unique artistry and warmth in a comfortable mood with natural light. The natural appearance of the two members captured in front of instruments visually expressed the album's analog sentiment and human touch, drawing attention.
As Jannabi unveils the prologue self-interview and profile, interest is growing in what musical changes and emotions will be presented through their fourth studio album.
Ahead of the release of their fourth studio album, Jannabi will hold a solo concert titled 'All Boys and Girls 2025' at the Jamsil Indoor Stadium in Seoul on the 26th and 27th. Expectations are high for what emotions and sounds they will present to the audience on stage before opening a new chapter in music.
