Chantal Acda plays on Eurosonic

Chantal Acda has been a well-kept secret, hiding out in various formations like Isbells, Sleepingdog and Distance, Light & Sky. It wasn’t until the 2013 release of her first real solo album ‘Let Your Hands Be My Guide’ and backed by musical soul mates Peter Broderick, Shahzad Ismaily and Nils Frahm, that she fully blossomed in her own right, "vulnerable and soft as fresh snow" (Mojo).

Armed with an even better sophomore album ‘The Sparkle In Our Flaws’ - released on Glitterhouse Records just last September – and an amazing live band, Chantal Acda has set out on a comprehensive European tour that will stretch well into 2016. Expect to get stirred, hypnotised and deeply moved. Or in HUMO’s words: « if heaven is as pretty as Chantal Acda's soundtrack, we’re all moving ».

  • « An album of warm textures and mystic atmospheres. » - Mojo, UK
  • « Sweet vulnerability ... Perfectly flawed » 8/10 - Uncut, UK
  • « Hypnotic and effective, understated and poignant, slow to reveal its hand. A more striking album this year will be hard to recommend. » Rockzombies, USA
  • « Little folk gems ... that are among the most beautiful that the folk genre has spawned this year. » Intro, Germany (translated)
