Joyce Blond: From Quiet Covers to Barcelona's Pop Spotlight
Barcelona’s music scene just got louder—and a lot more personal. Meet Joyce Blond, a pop artist from Pego who's quietly built his dream in the city’s vibrant creative underground.
. In a time where trends shift by the minute, KYEN’s mission is steady: to make people feel — deeply.
Turning Emotion Into Sound
KYEN describes his music as “very direct but also very deep,” and that duality is central to what makes his work resonate. Whether it’s through a sparse piano line or a layered production, every element serves a purpose. He’s not afraid to lean into feelings of sadness, anxiety, or anger — but there’s always a light at the end of the emotional tunnel: acceptance, happiness, and reflection.
His upcoming track “Set Me Free” exemplifies this ethos. The visual concept, captured by photographer Mette, features him running freely, symbolizing emotional release. “The visual should give the main message of the song without the song itself,” KYEN says. And it does — powerfully.
Inspiration That Hits Hard
Like many of his generation, KYEN finds artistic inspiration from artists who challenge the mold. Billie Eilish’s raw vulnerability and sonic range speak to him deeply. “Her way of telling her story is so inspiring to me,” he says. Recently, Benson Boone has also been on repeat, especially for his cinematic ballads and intricate productions.
But KYEN doesn’t just imitate — he internalizes, interprets, and transforms those influences into something uniquely his. His songs are less about storytelling and more about emotional truths that float just beneath the surface of everyday life.
Songwriting as Catharsis
KYEN’s songwriting often begins in unexpected places. For “Set Me Free,” the lyrics weren’t planned — they emerged from a subconscious place, later revealing themselves to be about someone close to him. It’s this spontaneity, coupled with his drive to say what he couldn’t in conversation, that gives his music its raw edge.
“I really want to say what I couldn’t tell my friends,” he shares. “That’s how I get the emotion out of me.” It’s a process of confronting, reliving, and reshaping — turning internal struggles into something listeners can scream or cry along with.
Future Visions and First Dreams
KYEN is just getting started, but he’s already looking forward. He knows there’s still a lot to learn, and that’s what excites him most. After releasing his first song, his focus has sharpened: elevate the quality, refine the production, and one day, step onto a stage of his own. Live shows are still a dream — but one he’s determined to make real.
And as for the people listening now? “Thank you,” he says. “It might seem normal to just listen to a song, but for me, it means everything.”
Conclusion: KYEN Is Just Getting Started
KYEN isn’t here to chase trends — he’s here to connect. In an era overflowing with noise, he’s carving out a space for vulnerability, honesty, and raw, self-made sound. And if he’s already this compelling at 17, the future is looking very loud, very real, and very bright.
