arts24 © FRANCE 24

Jennifer Ben Brahim is joined in the studio by British singer-songwriter Ala.ni for a very festive edition of arts24. Ala.ni has just released the second instalment of her two-part Christmas EP "Christmas Vol.2", a mix of original tracks and covers such as Joni Mitchell’s "River". Her "dark Disney" vocals are reminiscent of Billie Holiday and Judy Garland, and she has worked with living legend Iggy Pop. We also look at some other big Christmas releases from American superstar Cher, R'n'B singer Brandy and the self-proclaimed "Prince of Christmas" Matt Rogers.
