    2 3 4 5 Nadia Mladjao est née au sein d'une famille de dix enfants d'origine comorienne, d'un père pompier dans l'armée de l'air française, alors affecté à la base aérienne d'Istres. Engagée à l'âge de 17 ans par une agence de mannequins, elle part pour New York deux ans plus tard. C'est durant son séjour à New York qu'elle attrape « le virus de la musique » en écoutant Talkin' 'Bout a Revolution de Tracy Chapman, qui lui donne envie de tenter sa chance comme chanteuse. Elle commence à l'époque à prendre des cours de chant et à écrire des textes. Lassée de « faire le cintre », elle arrête sa carrière de mannequin et, après des rencontres infructueuses avec des producteurs aux États-Unis, rentre en France et débute en 2008 sur les scènes parisiennes. À l'occasion d'un passage au Sentier des Halles, elle fait la connaissance de Malik Ndiaye, déjà producteur d'Ayọ et Grace. Ayant choisi comme nom de scène Imany — signifiant « ma foi » ou « mon espoir » en arabe — elle écrit ses chansons en anglais, langue qui, pour l'écriture, lui vient « plus naturellement » que le français. Elle débute en faisant les premières parties d'artistes comme Angie Stone, Wasis Diop, Anthony Hamilton, Hocus Pocus, Sly Johnson et Ben l'Oncle Soul. En mai 2011 sort son premier album, The Shape of a Broken Heart, dont les ventes lui valent d'être certifié disque de platine, notamment grâce au succès de son premier single, You will never know.

  • Ellemosynary: Love Isn’T Easy,Dial M for Murder Provides
    Ellemosynary: Love Isn’t Easy Ellemosynary, now playing downstage at 2nd Story Theatre, is a one-act play about the relationships between the Westbrook women. Echo (Valerie Westgate) is a champion speller who adores her grandmother Dorothea (Isabel O’Donnell). Artemis (Sharon Carpentier) is Echo’s mother and Dorothea’s daughter. Ellemosynary, which means charitable, is about women who try to be loving toward each other but sometimes come up short. The story is told in flashbacks, as Echo relates how she grew up under Dorothea’s influence. Dorothea was a “notable eccentric” who was interested in communicating with the dead and astral projection. When Echo was 12, she wanted to be “the greatest speller in history.” Meanwhile, Artemis tells of how she chafed under Dorothea’s control, which was so unbearable she fled the country after suffering a tragedy. Artemis is neurotic but highly intelligent. She loves Echo but doesn’t know how to be a real mother to her. The interactions between the women are alternately sad and humorous. Playwright Lee Blessing knows how to write sharp, witty dialogue as well as how to create deeply textured characters. Echo experiences a lot of confusion and pain after being abandoned by Artemis. This is expressed in an overwhelming desire to win the National Spelling Bee. Echo berates a fellow contestant and spells out a series of words in a fury. The performances are uniformly excellent. Westgate, who previously starred as Joan of Arc in Saint Joan, brings the right amount of charm and vulnerability to Echo. Carpentier makes the audience understand Artemis’ character flaws and gains our sympathy.

  • Randy Newman Till Sverige I Vår!
    Randy Newman 2019-09-11 11:10 CEST RANDY NEWMAN TILL SVERIGE I VÅR! Nästa år åker Randy Newman på turnén ”An Evening With Randy Newman”, en fortsättning på turnén med kritikerrosade albumet ”Dark Matter”. I vår ser vi honom framföra sina bästa låtar på Lilla Cirkus intima scen den 17 maj! Biljetter släpps på fredag 13 september kl. 09.00 via LiveNation.se ‘Few songwriters can cut to the quick the way Newman does. He remains a great American songbook unto himself.’ – Guardian ‘In Newman’s best music he leaves you wondering where you stand, what you think, what you believe, how the world works.’ – Pitchfork ‘Newman has a knack for writing songs that are so attuned to what’s going on in the U.S. that they become predictive, articulating uncomfortable thoughts that are in the air but had theretofore gone unarticulated.’ –Vanity Fair I augusti 2017 släppte Nonesuch Records Randy Newsmans kritikerrosade album “Dark Matter”, uppföljaren till bästsäljaren ”Harps and Angels” från 2008. ”A collection of mordant musical entertainments that moves deftly from the sharply political to the deeply personal, from the Cuban Missile Crisis and Putinto songs of love and death that glide gracefully and cut deep” skrev brittiska musikmagasinet Mojo, som rankade den som ett av årets bästa album. Det gjorde även magasinet Uncut som skrev “Each satirical sketch is lavishly arranged like a miniature film score, with multiple characters, shifting points of view and dramatic lurches in musical style”. “Newman has made an album that is a match for anything in his canon. Both topical and timeless”, enligt the Daily Telegraph.

  • A Life in Song After Six Decades in the Industry, Randy Newman Still Finds No Shortage of Inspiration for His Music
    A life in song After six decades in the industry, Randy Newman still finds no shortage of inspiration for his music. By Iain Shedden 29 July 2017 Randy Newman: ‘I’m the opposite of a workaholic.’ Picture: Pamela Springsteen Randy Newman takes his humour seriously. “Sometimes I’ll write a song and the last joke is in the middle of it,” says the 73-year-old singer and composer. “That’s not right.” Certainly there’s an abundance of humour — much of it satirical — on his latest work, the album Dark Matter, his first studio release since 2008’s Harps and Angels, which is released next Friday. “It’s a funny thing,” he says with no hint of irony, “how much comedy I do. I’ve been thinking about that. When I was young the family would sit and watch comedy on television. My father liked it and my mother liked it and I liked it too. There’s nobody, apart from ‘Weird Al’ Yankovic, who has more comedy in their stuff than I do. I don’t know if the medium is good for it, but I like it, so I do it.” It’s hard not to smile at the lyrical thrust of Putin, for example, a song from Dark Matter he released just before the US presidential election last year, which, with Newman’s tongue firmly in cheek, extols the virtues of the Russian leader, shirtless and otherwise. 2 “He can drive his giant tractor / across the Trans-Siberian plain / he can power a nuclear reactor / with the left side of his brain / and when he takes his shirt off / he drives the ladies crazy / when he takes his shirt off / makes me wanna be a lady.” On the song Sonny Boy, bluesman Sonny Boy Williamson bemoans, from heaven, his place being taken at a concert by an impersonator.
