NJP 2025 - Julie Rains - Clara Kimera x Notinbed - Asaya

Nancy Jazz Pulsations returns from October 4 to 18, 2025, true to its DNA of celebration, encounters and artistic curiosity. This year, the festival slips into the graphic lines and vibrant colors of Art Deco, to mark the centenary of this emblematic artistic movement.

Julie Rains, singer, composer and multi-instrumentalist, fuses jazz, pop and electronica with a soft, warm voice. After the duo Juicy, she explores a vibrant, introspective solo universe, blending organic soul and deep electronic landscapes, the fruit of her collaboration with Rowan Van Hoef.

Clara Kimera is an artist whose universe intrigues as much as it enchants. Co-founder of Agar Agar, she is embarking on a new solo creative arc under an evocative name, a reference to the manga HunterxHunter and the chimera. DIY and cinematic, her musical aesthetic draws on shoegaze and underground rap. With Dial 8, her first EP released in January 2025, Clara offers a sensory dive into a hybrid universe of organic sounds, glitchy textures and strong imagery.

ASAYA, urban adventurer and speed enthusiast, combines a passion for racing cars with a love of funk and punchy bass. He creates a musical universe blending speed house, ghetto, garage and hardgroove with his signature "Fast Funk", a fusion of funk and disco in a modern, energetic style.
