Israeli-born Keren Ann had a very unusual life experience. His father is a mixed-race Russian-Israeli and his mother is a mixed-race Dutch-Javanese. Keren Ann is descended from four different nationalities. She spent her childhood in Holland and moved to Paris when she was 1 1 and started her career as a singer. At present, Kerun Ann lives in new york and Paris, as if she sang the songs in the album in French and English respectively.

There are different versions of chansons superstar Keren Ann all over the world: Americans say they have found an Israeli-born norah jones; ; The French call her francoise Hardy's successor; China people classify her as Chen Qizhen, a Taiwan Province singer. In this regard, she smiled helplessly: "People always love to compare."

Keren Ann is my voice. She is kind, simple and eager for friendship and love. She lives alone, but she has not lost her yearning for beauty. Her roses will only bloom in the bud forever, because that is the most beautiful and safest.

Who's Keren Ann? She was born in Israel. When she played guitar in primary school, she began to get in touch with Joni Mitchell's music. 1 1 After moving to Paris, she was appreciated by Joni Mitchell and got to know the famous producer Benjamin Biolay. The background of classical music has brought richer arrangement levels to her works. In 2000, Keren Ann's debut album LaBiographie De Luka Philipsen was a fusion of Russian literature, Jewish folk songs and French poetry, which appeared in the form of a fusion of Trip-Hop, folk songs and French pop music, and was a great success in Europe. Jardind' Hiver shocked 80-year-old Henri Salvador, the originator of French Bossa Nova. In his classic comeback album Chambre Avec Vue, he included five songs composed by Benjamin Biolay and Colinan.

Keren Ann is a girl who sings about life in French. Her folk songs are really "fresh", linked with ancient legends, hand in hand with short stories of distant times, and directly carried in the sound of simple musical instruments. However, since the second album "La Disparition", Keren Ann has added more jazz and blues elements to folk songs, which is said to be due to listening to a lot of music from chet baker and tom waits. Therefore, the freshness itself is very different. 16 years old, 30 years old, 50 years old, 80 years old, you have different listening qualities. If you are a lovely folk musician, it depends on what you meet. In short, no matter how you fiddle with the notes and make sounds, it will always create a sense of freshness. Keren Ann's first English album "Nowhere" is like this. It has nothing to do with the change of language, just like a waterfall will become a stream or groundwater, but water is still water. The same is true of the folk road. There seems to be only one way, from fresh to fresh.

The singing of "Going Nowhere" is more inclined to Bruce and more low-key. A slightly decadent light tone runs through the theme song of the serenade, the dreamy harmony of "The End of May", and the only strong rhythm "Sail or Widow". Even here and now, like a Christmas nursery rhyme, chansons's Beside the Cathedral, and Spanish Song Bird with a hint of Latin guitar color are all shrouded in a layer of sentimental light fog. Trip-Hop beat's early appearance has been hidden and turned into Beth Gibbons' inner melancholy. In addition to elements of jazz and blues, Keren Ann also absorbed more nutrition from chamber music, French pop music, Bosanova and even classical music. You can feel the tender and delicate French pop love songs of jane birkin and francoise Hardy. Joni Mitchell and Suzanne Vega's sweet North American New York folk songs; Club 8 or Belle &; Sebastian's simple and exquisite acoustic instrumental music and Nicholas Rodney Drake's sweet sadness.

Some people say that Keren Ann's works are suitable as the background music of any coffee shop in the world, which is obviously reasonable, but such gorgeous but minimalist works are more suitable for private listening. Kerun An's beautiful whisper is like fragile crystal glass, and it is like a cool mountain spring in wet summer. Her purity is a rose before a long thorn, and she can't live in the world for long.
