Jodie's Mood Project

A fan of jazz clubs and jam sessions, Jeanne Michard quickly met the cream of Parisian jazz during her first outings around seven years ago. She ended up playing regularly with musicians from the Zoot Collectif and Paris Jazz Sessions, among others.

Surrounded by all these talented musicians, it was then that she felt the urge to write for medium-sized ensembles. In early 2023, she began writing an album that she recorded at Zoot Studio around the character of Jodie: every human being is constantly overcome by emotions, joy, sadness, melancholy, boredom, love... Jodi is an imaginary character with whom everyone is free to identify, a poetic pretext for attempting to describe these states of mind through the various tracks that make up this album.
