Let the carnival begin at Casa de Yodelice, home to the melancholy alter ego of Maxim Nucci and his (not so) merry band. Already an accomplished actor, singer, songwriter and pop producer, Nucci lays bare his heartworn soul with a lo-fi musical flow as Yodelice—a marked contrast to the work under his other guise. Instead, this is folk-rock, keenly felt, and searingly honest. With complex, multi-tracked melodies, left-field instrument choices and world class guest musicians—including Marion Cotillard—these tracks have many layers to be uncovered.
