Cléa Vincent
After two excellent EPs (Non Mais Oui 1/2 and Non Mais Oui 2/2) released February and October 2014 respectively, Cléa Vincent’s luminous, demystified pop brings us to her highly anticipated debut album “Retiens Mon Désir”. A pianist with a background in jazz, Cléa Vincent breathes anew the French chanson tradition mixing different colours synthetic and organic alike, producing a modern sound unique to her songwriting. Her songs catwalk a false light-heartedness that evolve into addictive danceable tunes like in her songs “Château Perdu” or “Retiens Mon Désir”. With a spectrum of influences ranging from Michel Berger, Dick Annegarn and Ariel Pink, Cléa is challenging the codes of French pop and evolving it from a national secret to an international groove.
