Artist, Contributor

A clear and mesmerising voice. Strong lyrics with nostalgic accents. Some deep melodies softened by Cape Verdean and African influences. This is what makes Marie Minet synthesis of genre as sublime as it is innovative. In her raw but poetic way, she tells life stories that echo her generation.

After a first astonishing single, navigating between slam and world music, Marie Minet is back with a mellow and captivating melody and strong and elegant arrangements that continue to make us travel. Prête à tout is a passionate, universal and intemporal song. A song about the abysses of love, intense and fantasied passions that push us to lose reason and leave a wound on us that is almost impossible to close up.

Her first album, Clair Obscur which began with the texts of her brother Paul, was set to music by Jon Luz, a master of world music who has worked among others for Cesária Évora. Its release is expected for spring 2021.
