Lea Maria Fries - CLEO (2025)

Posted By: Fizzpop

Date: April 4, 2025

Lea Maria Fries emerges from Switzerland's expanding music scene with her debut album'Cleo'. Predominantly written and composed by the artist, with production coming from her bassist,Julien Herne. This deep and delicate work is full of stories recounting an artist's quest to write her own future. Tales told with confidence, maturity and sensitivity.

Her music, rooted in black music and jazz also has some experimental leanings, jumping from different styles and even languages, these 13 tracks showcase sonic leanings with elegance and beauty.

Lea's voice and charisma may evoke the explorations ofMelanie De Biasio and also the bewitching presence of Portishead'sBeth Gibbons. Like her peers the stage is her domain, she inhabits and dominates it with charisma and elegance, with an attitude that she claims is both"classy and trashy"

'Cleo'is the fruit of transformation… an album telling stories of a young Swiss woman setting out to learn about the world. Starting out in Lucerne Switzerland, via Berlin and now to Paris. When she was back home in Switzerland at theCully Jazz Festival, she met her current accomplices. PianistGauthier Toux, and bassist/producerJulien Herne. It was with Julien that she founded the duoEt.nu, a veritable sound laboratory where she honed her writing skills.

On 'Cleo' Julienhelpscreate electronic textures to carry the singer's words in; English, French, German and even her mother tongue, Swiss German.
