French multi-instrumentalist to perform at Zepp KL as he ushers in a new creative chapter with his third studio album
French multi-instrumentalist, singer and producer FKJ is set to return to Malaysia this December as part of his upcoming Asia tour in support of his third studio album Tyber.
The Kuala Lumpur stop will take place at Zepp KL on Dec 1, allowing local fans to experience FKJ’s signature blend of live musicianship, improvisation and immersive electronic soundscapes.
Known for seamlessly weaving together jazz, soul, funk, hip-hop, rock, classical and electronic influences, FKJ has carved out a distinctive musical identity that has earned him a devoted global following. His live performances, built around looping, live instrumentation and spontaneous composition, have become synonymous with his name.
The tour coincides with the release of Tyber, due out this September. The album marks a new chapter for the French artiste following the success of his critically acclaimed 2022 album, V I N C E N T.
A new era with Tyber
Offering the first glimpse into the upcoming record is the recently released single Soulmates, a warm and rhythmically fluid track that reflects the album’s themes of personal growth, solitude and creative renewal.
Written and recorded across London, Los Angeles, Paris, Brazil and Mexico, Tyber draws inspiration from the different places and experiences that shaped FKJ’s journey over the past few years.
The album combines groove-driven compositions with jazz instrumentals, sample-based experimentation and more direct songwriting, while exploring elements of funk, alternative pop, R&B and psychedelic music.
It also features collaborations with Lucy Park, Baby Rose, Bas, Eryn Allen Kane and Labrinth.
A pioneer of modern French electronic music
Over the course of his career, FKJ has become recognised as one of the leading figures of the New French House movement, developing a sound that blends technical musicianship with emotional intimacy.
Beyond his solo work, he has collaborated with artistes including Yussef Dayes, JENNIE, Jordan Rakei and Sofiane Pamart, while continuing to build an international audience through his visually rich live performances.
His career has also seen performances at major festivals and venues including Coachella, Red Rocks Amphitheatre and London’s Hammersmith Apollo.
