Early life

edit

Jessica Alyssa Cerro was born in Sydney on 14 August 1995, and grew up in the Hills District.[1] Their father, Gustavo Cerro, is an Argentinian former professional football player who played in the Australian National Soccer League.[2] In October 2019, Montaigne captioned an Instagram picture of their ancestors, "So my ethnic background is a mixture of Argentinian, Spanish, Filipino and French, and these are my great grandparents from the French side..."[3]

Career

edit

2012–13: Career beginnings

edit

Jessica Cerro was a Triple J Unearthed High School finalist in 2012 with the indie pop song "Anyone But Me", but waited until finishing high school to pursue their music career. In November 2012, Cerro signed a publishing deal with Albert Music and spent the following two years refining their songwriting skills under the guidance of Michael Szumowski.[4]

In late 2013, Cerro decided to adopt the moniker Montaigne, inspired by the 16th century philosopher and essayist Michel de Montaigne. Shortly after completing their HSC, Montaigne began recording their debut EP with producer Tony Buchen (The Preatures, Andy Bull).[5]

2014–16: Glorious Heights

In 2014, Montaigne released their first single "I Am Not an End", which was added to high rotation on Triple J. In July 2014 Montaigne signed a management and recording deal with Wonderlick Entertainment.[6] On 21 November 2014, Montaigne performed "I Am Not an End" for the radio station's Like a Version segment, along with their cover of Sia's "Chandelier". The song was listed as its 36th most played song of 2014.[7] The same day Montaigne also released their second single "I'm a Fantastic Wreck", in conjunction with the Life of Montaigne EP. "I'm a Fantastic Wreck" also received high rotation on Triple J and Sydney-based community radio station FBi Radio, which also listed the song as its eighth most played song of 2014.[8]

Montaigne was selected by San Cisco as the support act for their Run tour in November 2014. Shortly after, Montaigne was also chosen by Megan Washington to be the main support for their February 2015 national There There tour.[9]

In January 2015, Montaigne won FBi Radio's Next Big Thing Award at its annual SMAC Awards, which recognises "the musicians, artists, performers, restaurants and events that shaped the Sydney's creative culture in 2014".[10] Montaigne announced their first headline tour in February 2015, visiting Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Perth in April.

In August 2015, Montaigne released "Clip My Wings", the first single from their debut studio album, Glorious Heights.[11] In January 2016, Montaigne released "In the Dark", the second single from their debut album, along with the announcement of the In the Dark Tour.[12] A music video for the song followed in March. The following month, Montaigne featured on Hilltop Hoods' song "1955", which reached number 2 in Australia.[13]

In June 2016, Montaigne released the third single from their debut album Glorious Heights, titled "Because I Love You".[14] On 30 July, "Because I Love You" debuted at number 98 on the ARIA Singles Chart, marking Montaigne's first solo chart appearance.[15] Glorious Heights was released a week later on 5 August.[16] In November 2016, at the ARIA Music Awards of 2016, Montaigne won the ARIA award for Breakthrough Artist – Release.

2017–2021: Complex and Eurovision Song Contest

edit
Main articles: Complex (album), Australia in the Eurovision Song Contest 2020, and Australia in the Eurovision Song Contest 2021

On 4 May 2017, Montaigne was featured on Akouo's single "Feel That".[17] In 2018, Montaigne was featured on the track "The Best Freestylers in the World" from the Aunty Donna album, The Album.

In November 2018 Montaigne released "For Your Love" as the lead single from their upcoming sophomore album.[18] In June 2019, Montaigne released the second single "Ready" alongside the announcement that the album would be titled Complex.[19] On 9 August 2019, the album's third single "Love Might Be Found (Volcano)" was released.[20] The album was released on 30 August 2019, and debuted at #19 on the ARIA albums chart.[21] "Ready" plays over the end credits of the 2022 film Good Luck to You, Leo Grande starring Emma Thompson.

On 6 December 2019, Montaigne, along with fellow singer Didirri, were announced as two out of the ten participating performers for Eurovision - Australia Decides the Australian national final in which the winner would represent Australia in the Eurovision Song Contest 2020 with the song "Don't Break Me".[22] On 8 February 2020, Montaigne won the competition, and would have competed in the Eurovision Song Contest 2020, to be held in Rotterdam in May 2020,[23] but on 18 March 2020, the EBU announced that the Eurovision Song Contest 2020 has been cancelled due to the uncertainty created by the spread of COVID-19. On 19 March 2020, Montaigne made a Facebook post clarifying their feelings, saying "I've had my cry. I spent a couple of hours paralysed in bed, despondently scrolling through the many lovely tweet mentions from people expressing their love and support. I imagine I'll probably have a lot more cries in the next little while, for me and for the wonderful team who were working with me to make our vision come to life." Montaigne has also stated to agree with the cancellation choice, saying it was "the most responsible and ethical decision that the EBU could have made."

On 2 April 2020, SBS confirmed that Montaigne would represent Australia at the 2021 contest.[24] Montaigne's Eurovision Song Contest 2021 entry, "Technicolour", was released on 5 March 2021.[25] Later, SBS announced that following a risk assessment, they would not be sending a delegation to Rotterdam and would instead compete remotely using a pre-recorded live-on-tape performance.[26] Currently, Montaigne is the only artist to have competed in Eurovision without being present in the host city.

On May 18, 2021, Montaigne competed in the first semi final of Eurovision 2021, however at the end of the show, Australia did not qualify for the final, as it didn't finish within the top 10 countries. This marked the first time in Australia's participation that an Australian contestant failed to qualify for the final. It was later revealed that Australia had placed 14th in the first semi-final, with 28 points.

2021–present: Making It!

edit

On 3 January 2021, the hosts of the American podcast My Brother, My Brother and Me announced that they would stop using "(It's a) Departure" by The Long Winters as the podcast's long-running theme song due to controversial tweets by the band's frontman; after using various songs as placeholders, they revealed on 15 March 2021 that the new theme song would be "My Life Is Better with You", a track written and performed by Montaigne specifically for the podcast.[27] The song was officially released on 13 August 2021, alongside an official music video featuring Montaigne and the hosts.[28]

On 22 October 2021, Montaigne released "Now (In Space)", the lead single from their third studio album.[29] On 9 February, Montaigne was cast in the Special Broadcasting Service musical comedy Time to Buy, marking their debut lead role as an actress.[30] Alongside the announcement, Montaigne revealed that their third studio album would be released in 2022.[30]

On 25 February 2022, Montaigne released "Always Be You" with Talking Heads' David Byrne. In an Instagram post announcing the release, Montaigne said "It's pretty much the biggest deal in the world for me to be able to collaborate with him", crediting his book How Music Works as a "groundbreaking read [and] totally changed how I approached live performance."[31] On 8 July 2020, Montaigne released "Die B4 U" and announced the forthcoming release of their third studio album, Making It!, which was released on 2 September 2022.[32]

In April 2022, "Because I Love You" was featured in the eighth episode of the Netflix series Heartstopper.[33]

A portrait of Montaigne in oils and embroided fabric by Julia Gutman won the 2023 Archibald Prize. The artist said: "Jess and I have been friends for a few years and there is a lot of alignment in our practices; we are both interested in creating our own forms and approaches rather than strictly adhering to any one tradition. Montaigne's work defies genres, while their mercurial soprano has become an indelible part of the fabric of Australian music."[34]

In 2023, the video game Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical was released, featuring songs co-written by Montaigne. Their work on the game was nominated for a Grammy for Best Score Soundtrack for Video Games and Other Interactive Media.[35]
