JP Saxe is the alternative/ R&B artist with deliberate and detailed music, magnetizing us into his intimate and emotional perspective. With trance-like synth beats and vocal layering, JP curates compositions that speak to life’s journey: relationships, communities, and past selves, all which contribute to our growth and self-evolution. Pushed to explore his musical creativity, Saxe attributes much to Janos Starker, his grandfather and one of the greats in 20th-century cellist history. Recently, the lyric obsessed singer/ songwriter from Toronto is rising as a prominent vocal hypnosis in the leaning R&B category. We caught up with Saxe in between tour shows \[with Harry Hudson\] to get a peak of a weekend in his life: ![](https://assets-global.website-files.com/62ee0bbe0c783a903ecc0ddb/6472b45bc7a88e544f75c5d0_image-asset.jpeg) locks are a bad metaphor for love just sayin. keep ya keys, unlock some shit together.  1Y8A2982.jpg ![1Y8A2982.jpg](https://assets-global.website-files.com/62ee0bbe0c783a903ecc0ddb/6472b45bc7a88e544f75c5d3_1Y8A2982.jpeg) stopped in marfa for 6 hours and felt instantly artsier.  1Y8A3190-1.jpg ![1Y8A3190-1.jpg](https://assets-global.website-files.com/62ee0bbe0c783a903ecc0ddb/6472b45bc7a88e544f75c5dc_1Y8A3190-1.jpeg) “I miss myself” - the \*on this day last year\* notification my journal app just sent me.. as I’m all mopey and missing the relationship I was in at this time last year.  ![](https://assets-global.website-files.com/62ee0bbe0c783a903ecc0ddb/6472b45ac7a88e544f75c5c3_image-asset.jpeg) im lookin for a cool kid wave. at the moment im rockin with the wiggly i love you hands.  1Y8A3267.jpg ![1Y8A3267.jpg](https://assets-global.website-files.com/62ee0bbe0c783a903ecc0ddb/6472b45bc7a88e544f75c5d9_1Y8A3267.jpeg) it’s the holidays cuddle your loved ones 1Y8A3306.jpg ![1Y8A3306.jpg](https://assets-global.website-files.com/62ee0bbe0c783a903ecc0ddb/6472b45bc7a88e544f75c5cd_1Y8A3306.jpeg) look matthew da moon da moon! ![](https://assets-global.website-files.com/62ee0bbe0c783a903ecc0ddb/6472b45ac7a88e544f75c5bf_image-asset.jpeg) i don’t like beer, im very dramatic and no ones beating me at pool in this bar or any bar... what’s the lie?  ![](https://assets-global.website-files.com/62ee0bbe0c783a903ecc0ddb/6472b45bc7a88e544f75c5d6_image-asset.jpeg) abba dee abba dye ![](https://assets-global.website-files.com/62ee0bbe0c783a903ecc0ddb/6472b45bc7a88e544f75c5df_image-asset.jpeg) if yall ever want to paint me, this wall is your skin tone swatch 1Y8A1317 copy.jpg ![1Y8A1317 copy.jpg](https://assets-global.website-files.com/62ee0bbe0c783a903ecc0ddb/6472b45ac7a88e544f75c5bb_1Y8A1317%2Bcopy.jpeg) singing songs to you for strangers and trying not to think about you  * * * To see more by [JP Saxe](https://www.instagram.com/jpsaxe/?hl=en) click [here](https://www.jpsaxe.com/).
