Music Monday: Banda Magda/Magda Giannikou - Amour t'es la?
Worked pretty late today, so this #musicmonday entry will be pretty short and has nothing to do with the Asian pop scene for once.
Magda Giannikou is a Grecian tv and film composer who pivoted to performance after 1. Discovering her grandmother's accordion, and 2. Finding she had a knack for writing lyrics...in French. Her debut song, Amour, T'es là? / Love, where are you? is a buoyant, playful tune showcasing a remarkable mix of disparate musical influences--bossa nova, French pop, Greek folk, and a lot of accordion.
She also performed this song live with Snarky Puppy, a popular and prolific jazz fusion band. It's an excellent performance all around--worth listening to even if you're not all that into accordions. :p
