Carhaix-Plouguer (France) – Back on stage with a new album after a slump, Coeur de Pirate, the stage name of Quebec singer Béatrice Martin, delivered Friday a rhythmic performance with lyrics released in front of the public enthusiastic Old Plows.
" In case of storm, this garden will be closed ", his fourth album released in June, refers to a sign seen at the entrance of a park in Paris, while the singer was crossing particularly difficult moments, in the middle of a crisis of anxiety.
Allegory of an unhappiness, this apparently innocent little phrase became for the artist a kind of injunction to speak " of all things that I never wanted to address for fear of vexing and maybe losing fans "says Beatrice Martin to AFP.
Revealed at the age of 20 by a cajoling pop-folk played on the piano, the 28-year-old sweet-tinged vocal singer had a moment of doubt and a failure of inspiration after the success of his album " Roses ", in 2015.
It's his experience on the jury of the TV show hook-up Nouvelle Star, on M6, and the confrontation with young people " ever more talented ", who convinced her to write a new album. " I realized that maybe I had a role to play in the public domain, maybe I could help people ," she says.
Darker but also more mature, this brave and feminist album talks about " Consent " and " Embedded Sexism ," says the blonde young woman with the famous tattoos on her arms .
" It may sound like love songs, but they are often songs about my own insecurities, some pretty serious things like consent ", says Béatrice Martin, for whom he would have was " dishonest " not to talk about these topics, especially after the #MeToo movement that " released a word that I did not think I could release in the past ". A liberation of the word that she has " made in music ".
In fact, the artist puts into song the sometimes toxic love relationships but also traumatic experiences, such as rape, domestic violence, or the freedom to say " no " when a flirtation of a night when you change your mind.
– " It remains universal " –
" There are people who like to tell stories, I like to draw on what I know, which is my In a way, I think that music remains universal, so everyone can appropriate songs in their own way and that's what is beautiful "she badyzes.
In front of the audience of the Vieilles Charrues, the young woman dressed in a transparent red tunic, delivered an energetic and danced performance, alternating singing and piano, sitting, standing or jumping in a good mood communicative tinged with emotion.
" Crazy enough to say that we can do the Old Plows ," she told AFP. " This is my ten year career, it was good to do it now. "
Opposite, the audience is rather conquered. " I like this little girl and then I have respect for the artists who last ," says Jocelyne, 62, from Brest, who says above all " love the voice ] "Pirate Heart.
" It's much more rhythmic than usual, I'm pleasantly surprised, I did not think it would be rock, it accelerated its pace for plows ", recognizes Benoît, 40 years old, straw hat on his head and T-shirt on the Vieilles Charrues program. " It was incredible, there is a great atmosphere, she gives herself thoroughly, and then she is beautiful and I'm a little in love with her ," says Mathieu, 22 years old.
