Acclaimed vocalist, songwriter Madeleine Peyroux has released her first album in six years with Let’s Walk (Thirty Tigers). This record marks her first collection of original material co-written with longtime collaborator Jon Herington.
The album represents Peyroux’s most eclectic, introspective, and daring work yet as she bravely addresses personal and societal themes. Let’s Walk is a melting pot of genres, including jazz, folk, gospel blues, Americana, chamber pop, and Latin rhythms, peppered with moments of light-hearted humor.
Let’s Walk has been warmly received at press with both MOJO and The Times giving the album 4*. The Mail On Sunday accurately described it ‘crisply crafted’, whilst The Sun’s Something For The Weekend painted it as ‘a beautifully crafted song cycle’.
The title track “Let’s Walk” draws its inspiration from the global movements of 2020 where people came together to advocate for civil rights and a just society. It embodies a call to action, rejecting the notion of simply walking away from societal challenges and instead promoting standing up for unity and purpose. The lyric video for “Let’s Walk” skillfully integrates marching visuals with the song’s lyrics, intensifying its message and focus. This synergy enhances the narrative’s impact, delivering a clear and resonant message to viewers. As the full images appear, the emotional depth of the song is further amplified, creating a captivating and thought-provoking experience. You can watch “Let’s Walk” HERE.
The songs within Let’s Walk are interwoven around contemplative, observational and confessional narratives, making it the deepest and most substantive album of her illustrious catalog. With Let’s Walk, Peyroux invites listeners on a journey of contemplation, observation, and confession, crafting an album that stands as her most profound and meaningful to date.
