Earlier than we begin, a warning: This live performance features a music about suicide.
From the second Yseult stepped behind the Tiny Desk to rehearse, her fearless, full-out power left the crew in shock. The French singer-songwriter blends chanson française, R&B and pop with a punk-ish je ne sais quoi. You will have seen her carry out through the closing ceremony of the 2024 Summer time Olympics, however her vulnerability and experimentation makes Yseult a no brainer for our Tiny stage.
The vigorous set kicks off with two hauntingly stunning tracks, “SUICIDE” and “MTV.” Yseult then gives a glimpse of an unreleased music, “PROBLEMATIC,” adopted by the upbeat “CUTE,” which coaxes the gang with its playful, but easy groove. The ultimate music, “GARÇON,” is the cherry on high of a efficiency that might be etched in my mind without end. Yseult does all this whereas donning a T-shirt with the phrases “BITCH YOU COULD NEVER,” a music title from 2024’s MENTAL, on full show. Actually, she’s proper. I do not suppose any artist may have finished what she did.
