Title - Myriam Phiro
Artist - Becoming Marlene Dietrich
For those unaware, Myriam Phiro is an internationally-recognized French-Canadian performer, band leader and cabaret chanteuse who has performed on stages and in theaters worldwide.
Lead singer/founder of Nuage Rhythm “Mariposa", The Phirocious Swing Orchestra & Jolie Môme, she is currently promoting “BECOMING MARLENE DIETRICH”, her newly released Marlene Dietrich tribute CD and “PHIRO chante PIAF”, her latest Edith Piaf tribute CD.
In the dimly lit cabarets of 1920’s Berlin, a legend was born. Marlene Dietrich emerged as the epitome of glamour, sensuality, and timeless allure. With her signature husky voice, enigmatic persona, and a charisma that could captivate nations, she became an iconic figure of the silver screen.
As aforementioned, Myriam’s brand new album “Becoming Marlene Dietrich” pays homage to this incredible diva and her indelible mark on the world of entertainment.
Marlene’s legacy lives on in every sultry note, every smokey glance, and every seductive whisper. Please join us in celebrating the indomitable spirit of Marlene Dietrich: a woman far more ahead of her time, a symbol of anti-fascism and sexual freedom, and a tantalizing icon of beauty, undeniable elegance and absolute pizzazz.

This majestically-sculpted, wholly heartwarming, melodious new recording opens on the easy going You’ve Got That Look and the luxuriant Lili Marlene, and they are followed by the sweeping elegance of Makin’ Whoopee, the upright bass-led, dulcet, yet cultured Que Reste-t-il/I Wish You Love, and then we get an enraptured La Vie En Rose and the delicately-imbibed Quand L’Amour Meurt brought forth.
Up next is a beautifully indulgent Where Have All The Flowers Gone and the gently furtive, playfully flirtatious Jonny, Wenn Du Geburtstag Hast, and they are in turn backed seamlessly by the opulent Golden Earrings, a simply breathtakingly atmospheric Another Spring, Another Love, the upbeat swinger The Boys In The Back Room, the recording rounding out on a sumptuous My Blue Heaven, closing on her affectionately dutiful rendition of Falling In Love Again.
