Here is what ACT’s founder and artistic director says about her : "France’s new singing hope: Vocal jazz with edge, depth and that certain je ne sais quoi. Lou Tavano is the new vocal-jazz sensation in a Paris scene already filled with inspiring names. Her extraordinary talent soon became obvious: the ability to create a musical universe in which words carry just as much weight as notes." „A revelation!“ Morgenpost Sachsen „A true gem. For You confirms Lou Tavano’s flaming talent and originality.” Rolling Stone Magazine „A splendid album.” France Inter „One feels reminded of the narrative art of Joni Mitchell, of her serious and yet chatty tone, which, with great self confidence outlines stories. A very mature album.” Jazz thing „Originality. Talent. Poetry.” RTL „A stunning charisma. One of the most interesting voices to hit the scene in the past years.” RFI
