Maurice's sound is emotion tied with a silk bow.
If you need comparisons to whet your appetite, Amy Kyle's clear, uncluttered voice reminds me of Aruba Red in the modern era, with touches of Nina Simone. Maurice is surrounded by a group of highly accomplished musicians: Guillaume Perrin interprets the songs in a unique way thanks to his discreet but always relevant guitar thu ; Slim Abida on bass, with his acute sense of groove, adds a kind of caramel coating; and Laurent Sériés' fluid, joyful drumming ensures the cohesion of the whole. Bulldog's production, by Pajaro Canzani and Jeff Hallam ... is the crowning touch.
