Review by Anna Maria Stjärnell

Lenni Jabour is a chanteuse based in Canada and her new album gives a fresh spin on the cabaret formula.

“Les Fleurs Mecontentes” is a dreamy meander of a song, Jabour’s sweet vocal and the sing along chorus making it hard to resist.

“A Little Sad” is smoky and heartbroken, but catchy and fun with it.

The charming “La Fille avec les Cheveux Longes” shows Jabour’s talent well. Her use of a glockenspiel adds a nicely anachronistic touch.

The electronic ” Side Streets and Parked Cars” broadens the palette and adds a sense of modernity to the sound. This album is a lovely thing.
