Pollyanna

»Pollyanna is a French (anglophone) indie-folk project lead by Isabelle Casier. Her honest songwriting and her heart-warming voice remind of the edgy charm of PJ Harvey, Ani di Franco and Johnny Cash. Despite a natural flair for minor chords, Isabelle’s cheerful presence, eclectic taste and experiences as an outsider (in Europe, the USA, South America...) open up her musical field to all things pop, rock, folk and folklores.
Casier writes songs in English, but uses her French taste for poetry and social commentary. As an ex-journalist, she loves to deal with 21th century obsessions, often with a kind sense of humour (Old Rockers, I wish I worked in a Factory): travels, the weight of the past, identities and resilience... Her songs are both timeless and ultimately contemporary.«
