After nearly a decade with her band Escort, two albums and international touring, Brooklyn-based vocalist, bassist and disco contemporary Adeline Michèle is finally finding her own footing as a solo artist.
While the nu-disco outfit Escort was recognized by Rolling Stone on their Top 50 Albums of 2012, as well as Pitchfork’s Top 50 Videos of the '00s, the Parisian-born New Yorker decided to step outside the confines of collaboration and release a record that perfectly encapsulates her glitter-infused disco-funk vision.
Growing up in a suburb of Paris, the French-Caribbean artist hails from a musical family, even performing at the ripe age of 5 (“I never discovered music, it was always there,” she says.) The youngest of four children who all sang and played various instruments, she began singing nearly since she could speak and picked up the piano at the age of 9.
Yet, it was the city that ignited the musical career of the artist: on a merely exploratory visit to New York City to find inspiration, Adeline decided to move 3,000 miles across the pond after a mere five days. The multi-instrumentalist originally moved to Harlem for a few months before relocating to a community she felt at home in: Brooklyn.
The singer and bassist has since immersed herself in the unique spaces the borough has to offer, including attending local shows of her fellow Brooklyn artists and making regular appearances at the Park Slope Food Co-Op, a membership-based grocer in which members work a shift at the store in order to receive low prices on all-natural and organic food products.
There is no schedule or ticket right now.
