Describing Agnès Botty’s project merely as ‘intimate folk/world music’ fails to capture its true freedom, as its very identity is built upon transcending boundaries—be they geographical, musical, identity-related, or emotional. Recorded between Real World studios in England, Barcelona, and Belgium, her upcoming debut album, “Some Stupid Love Songs,” is the result of powerful human and musical encounters. Agnès Botty brings together international artists from diverse traditions and backgrounds (John Baggott of Portishead, Massive Attack, and Robert Plant; Karim Baggili on oud; Adrien Tyberghien, principal double bassist of the Opéra de Paris; Ziza Youssouf, Mauritanian Fulani singer; a Brazilian choir…), all working towards the same goal: the pursuit of precision and authenticity. A must-see at Motown as part of her “Secret Tour.”
Opening act: Jane Dune, a Brussels-based indie folk project
