Martha-Jane Official - This Place I've Never Been

Copied!

A few notes an old groove
Is what it takes to bring this mood
And the way it makes me feel
You know it’s like it makes me heal
And I seem to recognize
Each color when I close my eyes
Yet all the pictures that I see
Were taken long time before me

There’s a log hidden backstage
That bring them luck from its old age
It’s a foreign history
Yet the biggest part of me
And a studio called 54
Where peoplе thrive on the dance floor
It’s a diffеrent chemistry
And again it’s taking me to this

Place I’ve never been
Or someday in a dream
You know it feels like home
Oh yeah
This place I wanna go
I’ve been there long ago
Or was it me?
There’s a canyon full of laurel
Where people sing life is floral
It’s a blurry reverie
From a glitchy memory
Soul train is a long one running
The Troubadour keeps on singing
It’s a distant melody
Yet again it’s taking me to this

Place I’ve never been
Or someday in a dream
You know it feels like home
Oh yeah
This place I wanna go
I’ve been there long ago
Or was it me?

And here it comes again
This feeling of belonging
To another time another place
It’s a sweet old pain
One I’ve been longing for
And I don’t want to replace

This place I’ve never been
Or someday in a dream
You know it feels like home
Oh yeah
This place I wanna go
I’ve been there long ago
Or was it me?
This place I’ve never been
Or someday in a dream
You know it feels like home
Oh yeah
This place I wanna go
I’ve been there long ago
Or was it me?

This place I’ve never been
Or someday in a dream
You know it feels like home
Oh yeah
This place I wanna go
I’ve been there long ago
Or was it me?

Biography

edit bio

At the beginning of Martha-Jane’s journey to release her first EP in 2024, is a bowl of chocolate cereals and a television, on a Sunday morning of September 2001, in suburban Paris. The screen put light on a black fedora and a sparkling glove. And while the Western world experienced a major geopolitical upheaval, a little girl found a beacon that would never leave her.

This marked the beginning of years spent in choir, dance, and diligently reading record sleeve credits. She became involved in music-related associations and organized studio meetings with artists whose names adorned those CD booklets. Eventually, she found her place in the music business.

But a year before Covid put our lives on hold, she learnt that hers might not be as long as expected. Guts problems, apparently. Suddenly, everything became urgent, starting with giving herself permission to create “her music”. She thus spent two years learning music theory in jazz and contemporary music schools. This allowed her to deepen her understanding of her influences, ranging from Stevie Wonder to Carole King, Steely Dan, Minnie Riperton, and Michael Jackson. Through her music, she expresses a blend of happy nostalgia, introspection, a sense of place, and the importance of following one’s gut.
