Finally, Rachel signed the contract with the LITTLE SONG MUSIC that will be responsible for distribution of the first album in Korea. The album will be officially released on Sep 15, 2014.
The release in U.S. & worldwide will in late Oct 2014.
Her endless exploration and musical experiments has just arrived at a new destination: Jazz. Her very first solo album "Après un rêve" in collaboration with Nashville musicians will be released in Fall 2014, and the printed music will be published at the end of 2014. In the album, she challenges the same transformation that Après un rêve, a classical french song, has undergone by keeping the identity but in a new style.
Stay in tune!
