A stunning, bright and cathartic record, ‘Source’ showcases Cécile Naïla’s nuanced artistry in all its elegant and charismatic nature, embarking on a poignant and meaningful journey through folk stylings and relaxing textures and soundscapes. In fact, the album is part storytelling part ethereal dreaminess, an alchemy that seems to be working perfectly for the French songstress.
Crowned by Naïla’s evocative and gentle vocal tone, ‘Source’ is a welcome arrival point for self-introspection and personal reckoning, aiding the listeners into a journey to their deep consciousness. It’s a very universal record, with Cécile delving into tales of daily life and metaphorical figures, all softly lulled by acoustic guitars, long sounds and myriads of vocal harmonies.
Speaking about the record, Naïla explains: “Singing, for me, is entering into intimacy with the Great Mystery, opening a portal of love within the material realm”. Such a powerful ideal is supported by multi-language lyrics, both in French and Spanish.
