Flossie Malavialle
Flossie’s repertoire is very open as she likes all sorts of different music genres. Her songs include famous numbers, including Allan Taylor’s “Roll on the day”, Kieran Halpin’s “Making up the miles”, Colum Sands’ “The child who asks why”, Starrett and Laird’s ” John Condon” but also Edith Piaf’s eternal favourites “No regrets”, “La vie en rose”… or Jacques Brel’s “Amsterdam” and “Ne me quitte pas”…
She also loves songs full of energy or, as she calls them herself, full of “vavavoum” such as Bonnie Raitt’s “Road’s my middle name”, Kris Kristofferson’s “Bobby McGee” (Janis Joplin way)… There’s also space for lovely ballads such as “Georgia on my mind” or Frank Sinatra’s “Strangers in the night” as well as jazzy tunes like “Let’s fall in love”, “Misty” or “Fly me to the moon”.
So even if you have never seen or heard her before, surely there will be something in her repertoire to suit your taste! Flossie is making new friends wherever she sings and is looking forward to seeing you at The Processed Pea.
