Daughter of the Ivory Coast ambassador to Denmark and a chemistry professor who fled Guinea’s dictatorship in the 1970s, schooled in the Paris Conservatoire, it’s fair to say that ZWHES has got broad horizons, and her music is as ambitious as it should be given all that. On her debut album, she twirls and sneaks down the hidden spaces between R&B, classical, The Cocteau Twins, Kate Bush, musique concrete and a hundred other styles and sounds in between. It’s high drama, it’s personal, it’s unique and it is fantastically innovative all the way through.
