For her second album – released on March 27, 2026 – Magali decided to “Take a Step Back” to escape the surrounding noise and find a moment of respite from the harsh realities of our time and the challenges of relationships.
Whether the atmosphere is gentle and ethereal or more rhythmic and festive, the album reflects a constant desire to learn, question, accept one’s limitations, and strive to overcome them, all while knowing that the journey has no end. This new work offers Magali the opportunity to add real depth to the arrangements and production by co-producing with Kilian Arzel (Wheel Creation).
