    “Effortlessly musical and coolly unaffected … attentive and intimate absorption of the subtler mechanics of jazz”. The Guardian.

    February sees the Irish debut of young Dutch songstress, Fleurine. Fleurine sets intriguing and intelligent lyrics against hypnotic rhythms in a melodious landscape; her voice is light, but always musicianly. Frequently heard with the great pianist Brad Mehldau, she appears on the release of her latest album San Francisco (Sunnyside) on which she continues to practice her cunning brand of vocal wizardry.

    Fleurine boasts an enviable impressive international resume. She studied at the Amsterdam School of High Arts / Conservatory, then left The Netherlands to live in New York and has been working on both continents since 1993. Wanting to sing songs of Jazz in a different way, and thinking it would be hard to add anything to the repertoire of her favourite vocalists, she set out to write her own lyrics to compositions of famous Jazz composers such as Thelonious Monk, Kenny Dorham, Ray Briant, Curtis Fuller and Thad Jones, but also to songs of contemporaries such as Tom Harrell and Joshua Redman, thus creating a brand new vocal repertoire, writing in English and in Portuguese.

    She has released the acclaimed albums Close Enough For Love (EmArcy / Universal), Meant to Be (EmArcy / Universal), Fire (Coast To Coast) and now her latest San Francisco (Sunny Side).
