After her first album, Inner Stories, which received a critical acclaim in 2011, and a French tour in 2012, the singer and pianist Raphaële Atlan went back to the studios in 2014 to record Give It Time, essentially made of personal compositions that reveal a unique and creative kind of jazz, a universe full of energy, sweetness and poetry. In this second opus, her music is more than ever a reflection of herself : generous, multifaceted, enthusiastic, and deeply turned towards the world.

Born from a need to escape, several trips as many contemplative wanderings between three bright cities, NYC, Rio and Paris, this second album Give It Time shows the need for authenticity and new horizons that characterizes the young singer and pianist, gifted with an exceptional voice. In addition, the album is in itself a thought about the concept of time : the time one takes to fulfill oneself and make choices, the time one takes to discover, feel, leave ; time : the greatest vertigo of all, as well as our best ally in life…

The qualities of pianist and composer Raphaële Atlan have been noticed as soon as her first album, “Inner Stories”, was published in 2011. It offers a variety of warmer colors and more aerial tonalities, in a blend of jazz, pop, folk, and Brazilian musics. Her compositions and texts evoke a luminous universe, into which enthusiasm and melancholy pierce by turns. The sensibility of the voice, the delicacy of the piano and the softness of the guitar intermingle and improvisation arises freely!
