Jonathan Personne unveils Superstar, a new single off his upcoming album Répertoire

Montreal musician Jonathan Personne returns today with Superstar, a spellbinding new track that brings together guitars and samples. Following the catchy, dreamy Rêve américain, this is the second single from Répertoire, due out on August 28th, 2026, via Bonsound. The fifth solo album from the artist, who’s also known as the singer and guitarist of the indie rock band Corridor, is available for pre-order now.

Superstar could have been broken down into two distinct parts, but is instead a single mesmerizing track built on an unconventional structure. It opens with an engaging bass line and a sequence of rich yet strange samples, creating an intimately cosmic atmosphere. The second half of the track draws us in with a gently hypnotic repetition. “I caught you looking up at the sky / I caught you getting lost in a dream,” sings Personne in French, reflecting once again on the flip side of hope, a central theme of this new album.
