Kentin Jivek is a French songwriter and singer of
dark folk
[1] and
psychedelic folk
[2] songs.
The lyrics are expressed in the 3 languages: French, English and Spanish."Its origins come from beliefs and stories from mythology and folklore, updated to the modern psyche folk style".
[3]
In some of his French written songs (e.g. Parce Que C'est Toi), the affiliation to
Léo Ferré is stressed out by the minimalist structure of music and by the vocals. In other songs, the influences of
Current 93,
Dead Can Dance are remarkable.
[4]
From 2008 to 2009, Jivek has been performing in concerts, within various configurations:
Jivek, "the real orchestra-man" as named by Sortir à Paris [5] uses various arrangements and instruments which stand by and confirm the refined style of songs.
Jivek gave various shows in England, Spain, Greece, Germany to present his second album and Norway (invited as support for
Tony Wakeford of
Sol Invictus, in Oslo
[6]) to perform songs from the album "Ode to Marmæle" then in Portugal, Switzerland and France since the beginning of 2011.
