Info for Tangerine Moon Wishes
On Tangerine Moon Wishes, Sandra Nkaké narrates day-to-day life in an imaginary world. With a sound that mixes jazz, soul and folk-influenced pop with unparalleled inventiveness, the album's thirteen tracks describe living on the sand at the edge of a forest where the river flows into the sea. Times change, moods vary, characters transform themselves and everyone has an appointment with the Moon. They say it turns red just before it disappears, and we can all make a wish. Recorded live and produced by Ji Dru, this poetic and upbeat record is like a musical antidote to the trials and tribulations of today's world.

An introspective and powerful album, we are carried from beginning to end by Sandra’s majestic breath.

The album was recorded by Jean-Baptiste Brunhes at Midilive studios from famous Vogue label. The musicians all settled in the big studio, equipped with amplifiers and vintage instruments, and recorded the whole project in live conditions. Sandra wanted this spontaneous and natural bias, offering us a straight and fragile album, full of temperament.
Sandra Nkaké is one of the most moving voices in France: she has spread her personality and her talent throughout the most important festivals and stages in France and abroad. Tangerine Moon Wishes is her third album; it will be released in September via Jazz Village [PIAS] and promises to be one of the events in the music industry not to miss in 2017.
