He may self-identify in song as a “Sad Corny F*ck”, but JP Saxe is actually a guileless millennial romantic who crafts painstakingly delicate music. The Toronto-bred artist is a trained cellist, and his tremulous vocals—whether he’s duetting with Julia Michaels or murmuring against spare piano and guitar—sometimes dart under his accompaniment as though he’s simply part of a complex chamber ensemble. Paired with achingly specific lyrics, this trick adds depth to his tunes: A ballad like “Line By Line” becomes a deconstruction of what love songs are all about, while the gently jazzy “3 Minutes” is an earnest ode to a new love cloaked in an evisceration of her exes.
