Possibo – « Tendres Armes »
This album is the result of daring to share a small selection of arrangements, some of which are old and some of which are brand new. After having kept it all well hidden for many years, the time has come for some of these compositions to crawl out from under the rock and come into the light. Why "Possibo"? It is a nickname which I was given by villagers during my travels in Burkina Faso. It means "woman who believes in the future". There are 8 tracks on the album with a musical sweentess/calmness connecting one piece to the next. Questions are asked about the difficulties and the hopes we are faced with in life and in our relationships. Moment for silence within ourselves are offered in order to welcome our feelings, our desires; those which get away and those which come to life. To give you an idea of the style, here is the video for "Legere", which appears on the album. In order to support me, there are several options. All you have to do is have a look at the tabs to the right of the screen. For a digital MP3 version, you'll receive a link to download by e-mail. For those of you who would like, and prefer, like me, to have physical copy of the album to hold in your hand, to play in an old car as you drive toward to mountains, for example, you'll be send a hard copy as soon as it's ready. Through your donations, you're helping me make this album come to life. The recording will happen in Lyon by a profession sound engineer. I hope this will happen in February ready for the album to come out in the spring.
Allocation of funds
The money raised through the donations and the selling of the albums will finance: the professional work carried out by the sound engineer (recording, mixing, mastering, renting the studio, and pressage) ; the professional musicians who have accepted to collaborate on several of my songs. Stay tuned! I'll share who they are with you and what they do.... surprise!... The money will also pay Sofia Rivas-Micoud for her illustrations and graphic design. The total cost of the project comes to 4,000 Euros. Know that I will not pay myself for the creative element of this project. This is 'homemade' and done with love. Thank you SO much for your support, for your generosity and for being there. This project is something I'm doing for the pure pleasure of creating music, but I really want the quality to be at a professional level.
