Jodie's Mood Project at JASS CLUB

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...

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. 

Adepte des clubs de jazz et des jam sessions, Jeanne Michard rencontre rapidement la fine fleur du jazz parisien lors de ses premières sorties il y a environs 7 ans. Elle finit par jouer régulièrement avec entre autres, les musiciens du Zoot Collectif et des Paris Jazz Sessions.Entourée de tous ces musiciens et musiciennes de talent, c'est à ce moment-là que lui vient l'envie d'écrire pour moyenne formation. Début 2023 elle se lance dans l'écriture d'un album qu'elle enregistre au Zoot Studio autour du personnage de Jodie : chaque être humain est sans cesse traversé par des émotions, la joie, la tristesse, la mélancolie, l'ennui, l'amour... Jodi est un personnage imaginaire auquel chacun·e est libre de s'identifier, prétexte poétique pour tenter de raconter ces états d'âmes à travers les différents morceaux qui composent cet album.
