FKJ
French multi-instrumentalist, singer, and musician Vincent Fenton—aka FKJ, which stands for French Kiwi Juice—first introduced the world to his intricate compositions on his EPs ‘Time For a Change’ (2013) and ‘Take Off’ (2014). Since then, the self-taught musician has released two brilliant projects: his debut album ‘French Kiwi Juice’ (2017) and his 2021 EP ‘Just Piano’. Earlier this year, Fenton released his sophomore album ‘V I N C E N T’, a collection of songs that encapsulate his genre-fluid and elaborate style. Standouts include ‘Greener’ (with Santana), ‘Way Out’, and ‘A Moment of Mystery’ (ft. Toro y Moi).

For COLORS, FKJ creates a moment of magic with a live performance of ‘Us’, which also features on ‘V I N C E N T’. Bringing his signature live looped setup to the COLORS stage, FKJ collages together soft electronic pulses, light piano progressions, a gorgeous sax solo, and rock-infused guitar lines, before topping the composition off with soothing, falsetto-laden vocals. Watch the magic unfold above and be sure to listen to FKJ’s latest record ‘V I N C E N T’ if you haven’t already.
