Album – Portrait De L'Artiste – New LP

Portrait de l'Artiste, the second album from group Album (Gatineau, Quebec, Canada) feels far murkier and slipperier than their self-titled debut. Here, they intentionally embrace aspects of jazz, but contrary to expectation, this only makes their unclassifiable essence more apparent. Olivier Fairfield (FET NAT, Timber Timbre) and his co-conspirator Simone Provencher (VICTIME ) are well aware of how elusiveness can be wielded persuasively. Their inimitable sound is often a difficult one to describe.Portrait de l'artiste by Album releases September 22, 2023Written, recorded and produced by Olivier Fairfield and Simone ProvencherPerformed by Philippe Charbonneau, Scott Warren, Charlotte Savoie, Olivier Fairfield and Simone ProvencherMastered by Philip Shaw BovaCover art by Katerine Dennie-MarcouxPhotos and graphic design by Patrick9000Telephone Explosion RecordsThis project is funded in part by FACTOR, the Government of Canada and Canada’s private radio broadcasters.
