Marie Mifsud - Récif (2020)

Récif, worthy continuation of the album Là, which it extends with inventiveness and energy. With the drummer-songwriter Adrien Leconte, the pianist Tom Georgel, Victor Aubert on the double bass and Quentin Coppalle on the flute, Marie Mifsud excites and traces a new path between jazz and song, transporting his audience ever further into a poetic universe and crazy, where the malicious rhymes of the original compositions respond to the "derangement" of some famous standards. Marie Mifsud is an amazing singer. Calm and polite in life, she goes crazy on record and explodes even more on stage. Tracing its zigzag route, at the crossroads of French song and jazz, it has an impressive technique, always in the service of a spicy fantasy which, without warning, can cause explosions of emotion. A great talent to be discovered urgently.
