After 20 years of career, the Swedish singer with the unique vocal signature makes her grand return on the Okeh label with a new album in English: "More of the Good".So, Lisa Ekdahl comes back to settle in our ears... Since she is not the intrusive type, and since she knows how to subtly reinvent herself, it is with undiminished pleasure that we approach this new album "More of the Good".She wrote ten songs that take their time, neither too much nor too little. With lyrics that have meaning. "I'm getting thirsty for the meaningful, I'm getting tired of that stuffy stuff" ("J'ai soif de sens, la futilité facile me fatigue"), as she writes in "Like Mermaids".With room for all kinds of nuances, a pure and childlike joy, a sensuality tinged with mysticism, sometimes also a melancholy - all the more genuine for not being ostentatious."More of the Good" contains a few magical moments like "I Know You Love Me" where the trumpet prodigy Ibrahim Maalouf makes his most sublime notes resonate, "Like Mermaids", "Thorn in My Heart" or even "Let's Go to Sleep".The album proves to be dreamlike, poetic and timeless, jazzy with a pinch of Soul and Folk.The ultimate "Feel Good" album!
