Jill Barber | ENCORE! Tour | Karlstorbahnhof Heidelberg

In the organizer's words:

A café in Paris, a cocktail lounge in Palm Springs, a beach bar in Rio de Janeiro or a Lokanta in Istanbul. Jill Barber's French repertoire is played all over the world and has earned her a fan base that transcends language barriers.

A surprising achievement for an Anglo-Canadian artist who only began her love affair with French in her late twenties, after an inspiring moment during the Montreal Jazz Festival when she sang a few notes in French to a rapturous crowd. Barber released her own recordings of songs by artists who inspired her: Piaf, Gainsbourg, Aznavour. She titled the collection Chansons. It was streamed over 120 million times, received countless playlist placements, and sparked tours to Europe, Japan, Mexico and the Middle East, as well as performances at top jazz festivals across Canada. A decade later, Jill Barber has teamed up again with Grammy-nominated producer Drew Jurecka (Alvvays, Dermot Kennedy, and more) to produce ENCORE!, the long-awaited sequel to Chansons.

There's a saying in France for a particularly pleasant feeling that is so unique it's hard to put into words - when Jill Barber sings in French, there's a pleasant quality, a "je ne sais quoi" that's hard to describe but easy to enjoy. Now she's done it again - ENCORE!
