“Well, if Bebel Gilberto was a Frenchy that had musical bloodlines without the infused royalty, you would get Capdeville. A vocalist/songwriter with a deep love of all kinds of jazz, this debut finds her taking the listener around the horn of her interests and talents. Not quite a cabaret set, it does have that foreigner view of jazz that combines wistfulness and passion into a stew that suckers in the gringos every time. A most impressive first step and it certainly aint no baby step”. (La Cigale) Chris Spector, Midwest Record
Born and raised in France, and a 15-year resident of New York City, Capdeville is already a composer and singer to be reckoned with.
“My goal with this first recording project was to weave together a jazz tapestry of various music genres and create a coherent musical journey for the listener to enjoy,” she says.
Vision of Love — which includes seven original songs that she wrote — has just been released on La Cigale* Records and features an impressive line-up of talent including Grammy-winning Trumpeter Brian Lynch, Grammy Nominee and pianist Edsel Gomez, who also did the arrangements for most of the songs on the album.
