Jeanne Added / Radiate - CD
The wind has turned, the smoke has cleared, the fire is burning…
Following the success of her last album Be Sensational and a tour of over 200 concerts, Jeanne Added returns with a new album, Radiate. Throughout it, the singer radiates, singing with a fervor intoxicating with emotion. Authentic, accessible, relaxed, she sings with an open face.
Regarding her second opus, Jeanne Added explains: "I wanted more voice, that is to say, to hear my voice as I know it, to make it heard across a wider spectrum."
Frédéric Soulard (whom she has known since the Conservatoire National Supérieur in Paris, and a member of the group Limousine) and Mark Kerr (former drummer for Les Rita Mitsouko) together form Maestro and are the producers of the album. "Two immense musicians," she specifies, "Fred is at home with any machine, any synthesizer, and Mark is a great drum machine programmer and an unstoppable drummer. Plus, they are absolutely irresistible live; Maestro is tense, exciting, physical."
For the duo Maestro, "she has a unique way of concentrating her energy; there is a density and a direction in every phrase she sings. We just had to step into that sound, that approach, and that level of demand," they explain.
Magisterial, Jeanne Added's voice is irresistible. It radiates, bewitches, disarms, unsettles. It makes you addicted, enamored, happy, alive. The gods are furious, visceral, and volcanic; Jeanne Added’s voice moves mountains—our mountains. The big ones, the small ones.
