Though she first emerged as a contestant on France's idol-making show Nouvelle Star, the quirky, carefree indie pop of Camélia Jordana is miles away from the chest-beating histrionics you see on reality TV competitions. Her songs are unafraid to revel in their flaws, fashioning a joyous mélange of folky chanson, film-noir atmosphere, buzzing synths, gritty guitar jangle, and oddball orchestration. Tying it all together is Jordan's confident, conversational voice, which exudes all the casual cool and irreverent attitude of someone who'd blow smoke rings in your face and then laugh about it.
