Gabi Hartmann - Little Song Lines (2024) [Official Digital Download]

We can discuss endlessly, but we don't necessarily know very clearly where Gabi Hartmann's voice transports us: a jazz bar in the basement, a tropical beach at dusk, a terrace on a slope in Lisbon, the bottom of a Parisian brasserie on a winter night? We close our eyes and pass, entwined, the shadow of a jazz legend, a bossa nova diva, a great lady in black of French or Portuguese song, somewhere at the crossroads of exquisite chic and dizzying melancholy, consoling sweetness and shared spleen.

Fifteen months after an introductory EP, Gabi Hartmann's first album, made with Jesse Harris, is finally released. They met in 2018 in New York during a recording session. He brings everything that makes the glory of his collaborations with Norah Jones, Madeleine Peyroux or Melody Gardot.

Gabi Hartmann also brings a personal musical history in the making, but already bushy. Childhood and Parisian family listening to both songs, rock and music from everywhere. Classical piano until the age of fourteen, when she exchanged it for her brother's guitar to write songs. Jazz arises in rewind after its discovery of Amy Winehouse and its covers of Ella, Sinatra or Nat King Cole. Jazz lessons at the Schola Cantorum then at the Conservatory, detour by Brazilian music by living two years in Rio de Janeiro, a year of ethnomusicology in London, return to Paris to intertwine projects in ten genres and three languages.
