Charlotte Planchou


Biography Charlotte Planchou


Charlotte Planchou
An indefatigable explorer of cultures and aesthetics, Charlotte Planchou marvellously blends sometimes distant universes to offer us singular compositions and memorable interpretations. ‘She seems to sing as she lives’ (Jazz News).

With jazz as her second love after a successful career in opera, she surrounded herself with musicians from her various groups to write and produce her first album, ‘Petite’, released in October 2021 on the Blang Music label.

The album was unanimously acclaimed by the critics (Télérama, France Musique, FIP, Alex Dutilh's Open Jazz, France 2, André Manoukian, France Musique, Le Figaro), and accompanied the young artist on various stages: Jazz in Marciac 2023, La Cigale, Jazz à Juan-les-Pins, Crest Jazz Vocal, Duc des Lombards, Barrière-Enghien Jazz Festival and Sunside.

Listed as one of the ‘10 musicians to watch in 2023’ by Jazz Magazine and Jazz News, we can follow her on stage with her Quartet through a repertoire of original compositions and songs in French and Occitan, as well as a number of jazz standards that she embodies every time with a sincerity and authenticity that leaves no one indifferent.

The autumn of 2024 will see the release of her second album, recorded as a duo with the superb pianist Mark Priore.
