Keren Ann Zeidel's international pedigree -- born in Tel Aviv, raised in Paris, now splits her time between there and New York -- served her well on her first four albums, but this fifth, sung entirely in English, is her most worldly yet. Chalk that up, one would suppose, to a busy touring life and a growing confidence to experiment both with identity and available musical tools. By self-titling the album, Keren Ann is by default making a statement that this is her statement. That means that the recording w   [ read more ]

On the heels of critical success for her sublime debut U.S. album, Not Going Anywhere -- called "quietly devastating" by the Village Voice, "cunning and soulful" by the Washington Post and simply "the perfect day" by The New Yorker --Paris and New York-based singer-songwriter Keren Ann follows with Nolita. The CD, both beautiful and mysterious, pays homage to New York, her adopted home where she spent much of last year and is another intimate collection of quietly sung lyrical gems this time w   [ read more ]

Not Going Anywhere sees Keren Ann Zeidel operating in the same hushed tones as her previous albums and once again collaborating with Benjamin Biolay. While Zeidel has been compared to Dido and Portishead in the past, few would make similar comparisons this time around as trip-hop vibes really appear only on the playful "Sailor & Widow." Otherwise, the pace is held steady around 20 BPM and more frequently there are no beats at all. Instead, Zeidel frolics in a whispery, moody genre   [ read more ]

French chanteuse Keren Ann follows up her La Biographie de Luka Philipsen debut with the dazzling La Disparition. It's a romantic songbook of moods and tones, and a delightful set of traditional pop songs perfect for any season. Ann's soft, wispy vocals are the main attraction simply because they're that lovely. From the innocent childlike love of "Coin du Monde" and "Surranee" to the heartbreaking sophistication of "Illusioniste," La Disparition flows without pretense and    [ read more ]

Like Coralie ClTment, Keren Ann may not have the widest range, but she makes the most of it. Her vocals are light, delicate, and pretty, as if she has found a way to combine talking, whispering, and singing into one fluid approach (and as if she has listened to a few Astrud Gilberto albums in her time). La Biographie de Luka Philipsen was the French singer/songwriter's debut and many of the songs were co-written with longtime associate Benjamin Biolay (ClTment's older brother). Biolay a   [ read more ]
