Barbara Carlotti
is the renovator, maybe even the savior of French chansons. With only two albums under her belt, the thirtysomething – who grew up on Corsica – made also an impression outside of France thanks to her poetical lyrics and nostalgic arrangements. She is the first French artist to release on British independent label 4AD.
