Premiere: Yann Brassard Reveals His Energetic Solar Universe On Latest Single Titled “Rock Me Over”
Baie-Saint-Paul, Canada-based singer-songwriter Yann Brassard continues his fast rise within the pop world with the release of his latest single titled “Rock Me Over.” The influence of the king of pop himself, Michael Jackson can be felt with a rare grace all throughout this new song that comes following-up to his previously released song, “Overnight,” a sublime retro-pop single inspired by the disco era.
Under the sounds of a falsely light pop song, supported by magnificent choirs and smashing instrumentation, «Rock Me Over» captivates and transports in a striking and energetic solar universe.
While “Overnight” was entirely recorded by himself during the quarantine, with every instrument except the drums recorded separately using only his mouth, in the footsteps of three-time Grammy® Award-winning and multi- Platinum-selling vocal band Pentatonix, “Rock Me Over” displays a much different facet of Brassard’s vision and yet confirms his immense potential.
After being a finalist in multiple musical competitions in Québec, such as La Voix 6, and releasing two french tracks, “Mission Commando” and “Dangereuse”, Yann Brassard’s new artistic identity stands out from current pop music with its diverse influences, taking the most iconic inspirations from the past and blending them with a modern vision of pop.
Born of a Haitian mother and a Quebecois father, Yann Brassard’s cultural and musical heritage sits at the intersection of pop, hip-hop, soul, r&b, and Latin music, a wide array of genres that give him all the tools to express his art with a rich diversity of moods and vibes. Influenced since his childhood by 70’s and 80’s disco music singers like the Bee Gees and Prince, Yann’s incredibly contagious energy is poured all over “Rock Me Over,” as we anticipate the record to become a classic in the near future.
Yann Brassard has also announced that a five-track EP will follow. Shining a refreshing light on pop music through these dark and challenging times, Yann is sure to make the crowds dance and feel happy!

Album Review
Mary Knoblock’s “Peach” album is a tender journey through love, loss, and rebirth
Mary Knoblock’s new album, “Peach,” is a deeply emotional and cinematic world of sound, blending Americana folk, neo-classical dream pop, and storytelling into something intimate. The album is nine songs and just under forty-six minutes, with the feeling of a performance where every scene holds tenderness, heartbreak, longing, and quiet transformation.
“Peach” is inspired by the idea of emotional rebirth and welcomes you with warmth and honesty. Each track is a tender clutch of textures, poetic emotion, and experimental beauty. Her voice and compositions are finely tuned for a strength that makes every moment intimate and alive.
“Mustang Clover” is a free, contemplative track, while “Metal Neon Sky” is a luminous, mysterious, and desirable emotional landscape. The title track, “Peach,” is warm, tender, and exposed, and in a deeply heartfelt way, captures the emotional heart of the album. “Mother’s Eyes” is a piece of emotional depth and memory, and one of the most intimate moments of the project. The album continues with the quiet emotional weight of lead single “I Knew You,” graceful and restrained, balancing love and loss.
“Of The Alpine” evokes a drifting, cinematic sense of lonely isolation that is beautiful and lonely. “Maybe Tomorrow” is a lively, ambiguous song, while “Peach – Blue Grass” is a reimagination of the emotional heart of the album from a more rootsy perspective. “Mustang Clover – Deluxe” continues the reflective spirit of the opening track and adds emotional texture. “Peach” reveals Mary Knoblock as an artist not afraid to expose truth through sound, emotion, and imagination.
