Description
A resident of Lyon, Fanny LHeritier is Bess of Bedlam. She is also the lead singer of the French experimental pop band Odessey & Oracle. Her arrangements employ a variety of instruments (classical and electromechanical pianos, 70s analogue synthesizers, acoustic & electric guitars, banjo & dobro) with charm, whimsy and humour. Bess Of Bedlam is Inspired by Purcells vision and more recent English folk voices such as Shirley Collins, Linda Perhacs and Vashti Bunyan, with a 60s psychedelic pop sensibility from the likes of The Free Design, The United States of America and Sagittarius flavouring her sound. Besss debut solo album was released last May. Shindig! magazine describing it as evoking both Joanna Newsom or a pastoral Broadcast filtered through a fairy-tale lens.
