It was definitely one of the musical events of the 2024 school year! After a musical break of two years, Jérémy Frerot, separated from Laure Manaudou, is back with a third album entitled Sand kid, in homage to the Arcachon basin, its heart region. An outing that the 34-year-old singer did not really experience peacefully since he admits to having been very anxious on the big day, Friday September 13, 2024.I curled up under my duvet and cried“, he explained on the microphone of Thomas Isle in the show Culture Media on Europe 1.
Jérémy Frerot is “got sick very quickly, in ten minutes” while writing Adieu
It must be said that this new opus is very personal for Jérémy Frerot. In fact, the thirty-year-old chose the song Adieuwhere he talks about his separation, as the first extract from Sand Kid. Asked by Tele-Leisure in an exclusive interview, the singer justified this choice. “That was the song that kind of started all the others. I was in the studio, but I was disturbed, a little lost. I had just experienced an intense emotional change in my personal life and I started writing about it. It came out very naturally. I wrote down what my children were told by their mother to tell them that we were going to change our lives.” he explains. However, if the words came easily, things were not that obvious for Jérémy Frerot who confides being “got sick very quickly, in ten minutes” when recordingAdieu. “I had a fever, I was shaking“, he says. However, makingAdieu the first extract from his album was obvious. “It was difficult, but after that song, all the others came out at once. Releasing Adieu as the first single was quite logical because it shows in what state I started my album and in what state I wrote everything else. I think it’s a great introduction.“, he continues.
“It was very hard for me“: Jérémy Frerot talks without taboo about this period when he suffered from depression
Transparent about writing his song AdieuJérémy Frerot is just as much when it comes to talking about his mental health. Thus, he did not hesitate to mention his fear of dying in front of Bernard Montiel on RFMor to explain what his two sons, Lou and Sacha, had changed in his life in front of Adrien Rohard in the show Telematin. Asked by Tele-Leisurethe one who became known thanks to his participation in The Voice with his sidekick Flo Delavega returned to an event that is certainly older, but which clearly illustrates this disarming frankness on a sometimes taboo subject. “When, with Flo Delavega, we signed with a record label, I moved to Paris and it was very, very hard for me to leave the Arcachon basin, which I had never done. I fell into depression in the first months because I no longer felt the sea“, he confides. Jérémy Frerot nevertheless stayed four years in Paris, before settling for four years in Marseille then returning to the Arcachon basin. A situation which suits him much better because, as he explains , he can very well reconcile life by the ocean and the obligations imposed by a career as a singer.It’s just a question of organization: I can leave in the morning, dress my children, put the snack in the schoolbag, take the train, promote in Paris and come back in the evening“, underlines the one who finally revised his judgment about possible participation in The Voice as a coach.
