Description
Voice of the Year at the 2022 Victoires du Jazz Awards for her previous album Tisse, Marion Rampal is a songwriter with an eminently personal, luxuriantly creative repertoire. Timeless, impervious to fashion, magnificently 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 influences. 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 fierce, 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." - Telerama magazine
