About
Becca Wilkins’ latest project 'rêverie' is a collection of French Chanson, reimagined with her trio of Olly Chalk (piano), Sam Ingvorsen (bass) and Billy Pod (drums).
Due to record their debut album in late July, this evening presents a unique opportunity to preview the album's material before the quartet head into the studio.
Rêverie reworks the chanson made popular by Jacques Brel, Yves Montand and Edith Piaf through the lens of contemporary jazz as Becca brings her Francophilia into sharp focus.
These songs are a canvas for Becca's skills as both a song interpreter and improviser, with a set that is both brooding and mysterious; vulnerable and atmospheric. Expect haunting ballads alongside runaway waltzes, intricate counterpoint and masterful extemporisation.
Rêverie is a chance to experience Becca’s ‘other worldliness’ (Jazzwise Magazine) in this heady collection of rhapsodic Franco-nostalgia.
