Ann Kay takes a more personal approach to presenting her music with “In Your Rest,” featured in a new video production by Cortes Music Selection. Drawing from soul, jazz and gospel influences, the Swiss artist brings together a musical identity shaped by sensitivity, authenticity and a strong sense of artistic expression.
The new video gives the song a different kind of spotlight. Rather than focusing on a conventional studio presentation, the production puts Ann Kay herself at the centre, allowing viewers to connect with her performance and the personality behind the music. This approach gives the visual its own character, keeping the attention on the artist rather than relying on elaborate effects or distractions.
Produced by Meylan Production, the video forms part of Cortes Music Selection, an audiovisual project developed by the Swiss association Cortes Music. Built around minimalist musical formats and carefully considered staging, the initiative creates room for artists from different backgrounds to present their work in a more direct and personal way.
There is also a wider purpose behind the project. Cortes Music aims to give greater visibility to emerging and established talents from French-speaking Switzerland, encourage audiences to discover different musical styles and bring attention to the variety of artists working in the region.
With “In Your Rest,” Ann Kay becomes part of that effort, offering viewers a closer look at her musical world and allowing her performance to speak for itself.
