Sylvaner introduces his debut project with new single “Pentimento,” a soulful pop track that immediately sets the tone for the world he’s building. Written, produced, engineered, and mixed entirely by Sylvaner himself, the song feels intimate and intentional, shaped through months of quiet experimentation. Built around emotive vocals and raw electric guitar, “Pentimento” explores heartbreak in a way that feels understated but deeply felt.
The song takes its name from a word Sylvaner discovered during a period of personal upheaval, referring to the traces left behind when old layers resurface. That idea runs through the track, giving it a reflective edge beneath its smooth exterior. While it works as a classic breakup song, there’s a deeper thread for listeners who, touching on the parts of ourselves that linger after a relationship ends.
Behind the release is an artist shaped by a lifetime of music. Born and raised in Las Vegas, Sylvaner grew up surrounded by records thanks to his father’s record stores and his parents’ broad musical tastes. Music became his main form of expression early on, eventually leading him into studio engineering before he felt pulled toward his own creative path. “Pentimento” marks the beginning of that shift, showcasing a confident first step into a project that’s personal, considered, and clearly his own.
