Description
Timeless, impervious to fashion, magnifcently inventive and sumptuously
moving, she has been acclaimed by the likes of saxophonist Archie Shepp,
French-Cameroonian actress and singer Sandra N’Kake, and Quatuor Manfred.
Created with her accomplice Matthis Pascaud (guitars and production), her new
opus Oizel , gives pride of place to her folk and pop infuences. With her voice
poised, naked and quivering, in subtly kneaded French – her language of sunken
hearts, she calls on the inspiring birds, mocking blackbirds or wild geese, funny
birds, libertarians and marginal people of all feathers. Between poignant laments
and cheeky refrains, it resonates like a vibrant declaration of independence, and
gives voice to the gentle yet ferce, tender yet unruly song of an artist and a
woman who, more than ever, from the impregnable heights to which her music
lifts her, tells us: “No, you’re not going to put me in a box like that.”
“If there is a way to escape Marion Rampal’s seduction, it is unknown to us.” –
