Following a recent break-up, Jasmine Lucilla Elizabeth Jennifer van den Bogaerde, aka Birdy, has revealed that she has been listening to a lot of Etta James and Nina Simone. The Englishwoman embarked on a three-month trip to India before dropping anchor in California, in Topanga, in the Santa Monica Mountains. This region had a connection to the seventies Laurel Canyon scene, which brought together James Taylor, Jackson Browne and Joni Mitchell, whose legendary album Blue Birdy has been playing on repeat. All of these experiences went into giving Young Heart the feel of a mature work, which is no mean feat given that this artist shot to the top of the charts in 2011, aged just 15, with her cover of Bon Iver's Skinny Love. Now she is leaving big production values behind: this is all about a sparse sound, a less-is-more sensibility, and confessional songwriting. And in a crowded field of break-up albums, Birdy is able to stay ahead of the pack thanks to her sharp pen (And dark are my days now that I face them on my own, so long are the nights now that I'm sleeping here alone) and her masterful, shimmering melodies. In the middle section of this fourth album, which is indeed clearly influenced by Joni Mitchell, she demonstrates her confidence by playing a long excerpt from Chopin's Waltz No.19 in A Minor. This album seems to mark the moment when, at the age of just 25, Birdy really found a style and tone to call her own. © Marc Zisman/Qobuz
