It’s sometimes good to keepadmirers at a distance. For her “come-back” album, Brisa Roché followsthis rule to the letter.Afterfour albums in France, she returned to her native California—not the one with six-lane highwaysand palm trees, but the one up north, where mountain lions roam,and sequoias tower. There, hiddenin  her  home-studio,  she  channeled  song  after  song,  inspired  by  tracks  arrivingfrom producersall over the world. Some sent sound hoping to re-provoke songwriting in the vein of jazz-singer-Brisa freshly arrived in France the moment the Twin Towers fell, who haunted the stages of Parisian caves with ahigh shadowy voice, forcing journalists to compare her to Billie  Holiday.  Others  sent  what  revealed  a  preferencefor  theavant-gardismof  “Mystery Man” off ofher first record on Blue Note, that transported fans withpop as daring as it was sweet. Still other composers sent tracks they hoped would prolong the sound they loved in her hits “Whistle”and “Call Me”, from her psych-folk period.But  of  course,  Brisa  did  not  revisit  the  past.  She  invented  a  future,  a  space-time  exercise, creating songs  across  thousands  of  miles,  across  musical  genres,  where  a  voice  springs  as easily  from  a  computer,  an  applauded  stage,  ora  virgin  forest.  The  album  INVISIBLE  1  istitled  such  because  anythingis  possible  when limitations  imposed  by  astudio setting are discarded,  when  judgments  and  timidity  are  veiled  by  distance,  when  collaborations multiply  across  the  waves,  when  intimacy  with  strangers  makes  art. Brisawrites  quickly, urgent  with  the noveltyof  imported  sounds  and  privacy,  40  melodic  arrangements,  40 stories told, narrowed down now to a 14-song album with two sides, upon which two sides of her personality dance.The “introvert side” nestles on Thibaut Barbillon’s intimate guitars and soaring chords, the singer a dreamer and an insomniac, giving herself up in confession. As if escaped from a girl group, she invites us to walk with her, or to lock ourselves in her room withher.The “extrovert side”, sunnier with a more electronic feel and Blackjoy at the control panel, features  ideas  from  co-producer  Marc  Collin  (Nouvelle  Vague,  Yasmine  Hamdan,  Elodie Frégé...), upon which Brisa’s voice is amplified, playful as a Kate Bush, serious as a Lana Del Rey.This  production,  free  from  all  constraints,  between  continents,  out  of  French  studios, American  studios,  home-studios, underground  studios,from  Paris  to  the  American  West, gives us a new Brisa Roché. At  this  hour  of  the  death  of  the  great  British  chameleon  David  Bowie,  when  formatted records reign supreme, it’s a pleasure to see and hear an artist who stuns us with her daring art of metamorphosis.
