Album DescriptionSepia is a unique debut album from a Cameroon storyteller named Coco Mbassi (em-bas-see). Bridging the Christ-centered message of Gospel with dreamy songs erected on sparse acoustic instrumental arrangements with minimal and mostly hand percussion, bel canto piano, string quartet, solitary soprano sax and vocal overdubs or harmonizing backup singers, Sepia straddles the fence - between a tender roots-folk feel for its elemental yet delicate atmosphere, and a mature finesse for the impressionist palette of pastels wherey Mbassi sketches her lyrical soundscapes. Tropical. 2004.
