Our Take

CARMEL's latest album "Strictly Piaf" is like a whimsical stroll through a Parisian bistro after one too many glasses of red wine. The British chanteuse breathes new life into the iconic songs of Edith Piaf, with her own unique blend of sass and charm.

From the moment the accordion kicks in on the opening track, you can't help but be transported to the cobblestone streets of Montmartre. CARMEL's lush vocals soar over the jaunty melodies, capturing the bittersweet essence of Piaf's music while putting her own modern spin on it.

Tracks like "La Vie en Rose" and "Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien" are given a fresh, funky twist, with CARMEL's band delivering tight grooves and infectious rhythms. It's impossible not to tap your foot along to the infectious energy of these songs.

But it's not all fun and games - CARMEL also delves into the darker, more introspective side of Piaf's repertoire. The haunting "Hymne à l'amour" and the poignant "L'accordéoniste" showcase CARMEL's emotional depth and vulnerability, proving that she is more than just a flashy show-woman.

Overall, "Strictly Piaf" is a delightful romp through the annals of French chanson, brought to life by CARMEL's undeniable charisma and talent. So grab a glass of wine, put on your beret, and let CARMEL whisk you away to the streets of Paris. Santé!
