One year after her critically acclaimed second album All I Can Provide (SK099CD/LP) that featured a who is who of Electronic and Jazz producers such as JAZZANOVA, ATJAZZ, VIKTER DUPLAIX, CHARLES WEBSTER, SLOPE, and KING BRITT among others, Sonar Kollektiv’s nu-soul diva CLARA HILL worked on a side-project called CLARA HILL’S FOLKWAVES revealing the more folky side of her personality. She recently released the magnificent album Sideways (SK161CD) loaded with intimate tales concerning matters of the heart. Emotional and personal this new album will please her most faithful fans and seduce many new listeners with CLARA’s warm and soulful voice.

Wonderful World is one of the most positive and cheerful songs of Sideways (SK161CD) and one of the highlights of the whole album. On this tune CLARA HILL is recalling personal moments of joy and well-being and invites us to take some time off to look around us and realise that we do live in a beautiful world. The radio edit of Wonderful World is a nice slice of folk pop served with a slighty jazzy instrumentation that really gives to CLARA’s voice the highlight it deserves. She sings her heart with a complaisant presence and an appeasing power. It grabs you and takes you right away.
For the acoustic version exclusively available on Digital Kollektiv, Wonderful World has been stripped of its drum sections. It gives a new depth and intensity to CLARA’s voice and soothes you even more, as if you were resting peacefully in a cocoon of love and happiness.
