A Day for the Hunter, A Day for the Prey, the follow up to Leyla McCalla’s critically acclaimed Vari-Colored Songs, is a musical exploration of two cultural identities — one sprouted in the United States and the other firmly planted in Hati. McCalla alternates between cello, tenor banjo and guitar, and sings in English, French and Haitian Creole. Whether she tackles fresh versions of traditional pieces or original compositions, there is a timelessness and perceptivity to all of her songs, which ask big questions and demand big answers.
Dans la lignée de son premier album Vari-Colored Songs, Leyla McCalla poursuit l’exploration multi-culturelle de ses deux pays, Haïti dont elle est originaire et les Etats-Unis où elle vit à La Nouvelle-Orléans. Héritière moderne d’Alan Lomax et marquée par l’histoire du folk américain et du jazz, elle est multi-instrumentiste et écrit et chante en anglais, en français et en créole. Qu’il s’agisse de morceaux traditionnels revisités ou de compositions originales, il flotte dans toutes ses chansons quelque chose d’intemporel, de naturel et d’intense à la fois, en même temps que des parfums essentiels de liberté et d’humanisme.
