"O’Halloran’s output has always been imbued with a careful, gentle and reflective quality."
Clash Magazine

Dustin O’Halloran is an American pianist and composer with six acclaimed solo albums under his own name, and is a member of the band A Winged Victory for the Sullen, which has released five albums, some based on scores and soundtracks. 

He previously released music with dreampop band Dēvics – which he co-founded with Sara Lov in his late teens before embarking on a solo career. Tracks from his debut solo album Piano Solos (2004) caught the attention of music supervisor Brian Reitzell, who shared them with Sofia Coppola to help inspire her script for Marie Antoinette. Coppola invited him to contribute music to the film, which marked his breakthrough as a film composer. These tracks were subsequently included in his second solo album Piano Solos Vol 2 (2006).O’Halloran signed with renowned classical music label Deutsche Grammophon in early 2019, releasing the EP Sundoor (2019. His next album released by the label, Silfur (2021), revisits select songs from his catalogue, exploring time and place. 

O’Halloran also produced Katy Perry’s ‘Into Me You See’ on her 2017 album Witness, collaborated with Gyda Valtýsdóttir for the EP 3 Movements in 2017, and appears on Leonard Cohen’s 2019 posthumous album Thanks For The Dance.

O’Halloran’s latest record 1 0 0 1, released on Deutsche Grammophon in March 2024, is an expansion of that composition, marking a departure from the introspective solo piano music with which he first made his name.

MARGARET HERMANT

L’artiste belge Margaret Hermant, co-fondatrice du groupe Echo Collective, présente son dernier projet solo, révélant une nouvelle facette de sa vision créative en mettant en valeur les sons enchanteurs de la harpe. En collaboration avec Fabien Leseure, Margaret Hermant explore une fusion entre les tonalités acoustiques traditionnelles de la harpe et des effets avant-gardistes, ainsi que des techniques de manipulation sonore non conventionnelles.

Le résultat est un mélange captivant de mélodies familières et d’ambiances évocatrices, guidant les auditeurs à travers des paysages cinématiques riches en images et en émotions. Influencée par ses collaborateur·rice·s tels que Johann Johannsson, Dustin O’Halloran, Adam Wiltzie, Christina Vantzou, Rutger Hoedemaekers ou encore Joep Beving, Margaret Hermant enrichit son répertoire musical à chaque collaboration, garantissant à ses compositions une expérience unique et enrichissante.
