Yasmine Kyd's fifth album Night Sailin' feels and sounds like a moonlit cruise across the musical genres that most inspire her: soul and jazz music.

Yasmine grew up on the Atlantic coast of Brittany, listening to sounds from around the globe: Berber folk music (her dad’s Algerian), jazz, soul, bossa nova and British pop music. Seamlessly piecing together her influences, she has a knack for melodies that stay with you, serviced by a distinctively mellifluous, yet powerful vocal presence. Her style as a lyricist balances interest in intimate personal experience with concern with social reality, looking at both from a poetic perspective.

The outstanding musicians sailing along with Yasmine on this album are long-time musical companions. The songs were recorded live in the studio (Wise Studio), giving the sound its organic and dynamic quality.

Zacharie Abraham: double bass ; Leandro Aconcha: keys ; Laurent Avenard: guitars ; Mat' Stora: drums

Night Sailin' confirms Yasmine Kyd as one of France's most interesting contemporary soul and jazz artists.

“Yasmine Kyd 's record 'Showtime' - her best work yet drops Nov 16 – form an orderly queue. Essential”
