Carlisle has fashioned a traditional pop album that pays tribute to the classic French chansons and pop music of the '40s, '50s and '60s - with guests Brian Eno, Sharon Shannon, Natacha Atlas and others!

Belinda Carlisle's 'Voila' - her first new album in a decade, and her first record sung entirely in French - is a radical departure for the pop diva and lead singer of the Go-Gos.

Working with producer John Reynolds (U2, Sinéad O'Connor, Indigo Girls, Hothouse Flowers), Carlisle has fashioned a traditional pop album that pays tribute to the classic French chansons and pop music of the '40s, '50s and '60s. Carlisle and Reynolds went into the studio with a musical dream team including Brian Eno on keyboards, guitarist Fianchna O'Braonain (Hothouse Flowers,) Sharon Shannon, the Irish button accordion player who incorporates reggae, tango and calypso into her music, Julian Wilson (Grand Drive) on piano, Hammond B-3, strings, keyboards and world music star Natacha Atlas (Transglobal Underground) on backing vocals.

"Prepare to be spun on your axis by [Carlisle's] wildly successful rebirth."
- Uncut, February 2007
