ANNIQUE MONET
a new pop icon
ABOUT THE ARTIST
With a voice as one-of-a-kind as her name, Annique Monet beckons you into a world of hypnotic visions and seductive mystery. Her voyage began in the NYC indie psychedelia scene, captivating those seeking music transcending the ordinary with the 2015 release of her solo album, 'Phantom Letters,' via Beyond Beyond is Beyond Records. During that time, she reunited with her childhood Florida friend and musician, Andrew Forman, leading her to embrace the electrifying energy of performing as a lead singer in Goodfight—a surfy, jazzy-but-not-quite-jazz, indie rock band that embodies the essence of a good time. However, it was a serendipitous venture into voiceover work and jingles in 2021 that kindled the spark for creating her upcoming disco pop single. During that period, she explored a new potential sonic channel, pulling inspiration from early idols like Britney Spears and Paula Abdul, to more recent icons like Doja Cat and Lucky Daye, on a determined passion-fueled quest to make it uniquely her own. Collaborating with co-writer and producer Crystal Rose and producer Ashwin Prasanna (The Angles), she pushed her boundaries and stepped into a new shimmering light. Now, Annique Monet embarks on a captivating odyssey of ever-evolving self-discovery and unapologetic expression. Her voice is the key to unlocking the aphrodisiac allure of her sound, inviting you to dance on the edge of the unknown, with every note whispering secrets of her extraordinary journey.
ABOUT THE SINGLE
Streaming on all available platforms now, this disco-pop gem, “In My Dreams”, is a song born from the sizzling frustrations of someone flirting, advancing, then pulling away…that maddening rollercoaster of desire that leaves you dancing with them only in your dreams, then waking to wonder why they backed off. More than just a fusion of early influences, the stormy waves of desire depicted in the lyrics reflect personal experiences anchored by a deep-seated belief that there’s something extraordinary beneath the surface. As the song whirls and twirls you through its sultry rhythms, you’re beckoned to move to the beat and to remember that there’s a reason why that certain someone was drawn to you in the first place.
