ALBIN DE LA SIMONE - VANILLE

"Subtil et stylé, Albin de la Simone continue de nous enchanter"

Craftsman of joyfully eccentric sounds and French illustrator Albin de la Simone is back with a seventh album that tells us more about « The next hundred years ». Often working as a producer for Miossec, Pomme, Vanessa Paradis, or Pierre Lapointe, he chose not to be one for himself. Thus, he took the wise decision to entrust the keys to Ambroise Willaume, founder of Revolver now operating as Sage (Clara Luciani, Alex Beaupain, and Eddy de Pretto). Sage's guitars and bass, in conjunction with Albin's keys, in a noticeably more pop spirit than usual, give this ensemble the appearance of an elegant fresco that never stands still, which unfolds like a trompe-l'oeil set. Noble and sentimental, discreetly voluptuous, with a musicality that belongs only to Albin de la Simone, this seventh opus will remain to accompany the passing days for a long time and in beauty. Obviously for the next hundred years.

VANILLE

Vanille is the project of singer songwriter Rachel Leblanc. Existing somewhere between 60s folk and french chanson, the songs of Vanille bring the listener into a dreamlike world, filled with dense forests and ravenous heartbreaks. Her second album, decorated with lush arrangements and timeless melodies, is set for release in february 2023 on the independent label Bonbonbon.
