EMMA FRANK FOLK-SOUL

It’s a second Festival visit for this adoptive Montrealer whose magnificent voice enthralled fans last year, radiating sensual nonchalance and delivering a folk-soul ambience that goes straight to the heart. Compared to a young Joni Mitchell, Frank is accompanied by an impressive quartet steeped in jazz-folk and perfectly suited to enveloping her silky, airy vocals. Her music boasts rhythmic shifts and sinuous melodies, casting a spell with its finesse, and authentic, mature lyrics addressing love and life.
