Gab Bouchard at MTELUS

Fri 24 Nov 2023 • 08:00 pm Pop / Rock
MTELUS - Montréal 33$
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

Music: being born into it is one thing; making a life out of it is what we’re talking about. An engaging, detached young man from Saint-Prime, Gab Bouchard independently launched the country-rock EP with pop touches Cerveau-lent in 2017. Spurred on by the local buzz, he then headed to Montreal to recreate the buzz in the metropolis, preceded by his trademark moustache.

The first popular milestone, the fruit of hard work and heartbreak, his album Triste pareil was released on the eve of the first confinement of 2020, allowing him to do launch shows only in Montreal and Quebec City. And although his first round of concerts was scuttled, he was able to get back on track with a batch of festival appearances in the summer of 2021, and began work on his second album, Grafignes, over two winters.

Released in August 2022, Grafignes reflects the progress made since the first album, taking more time and space. It’s a collection with themes that are both “lusher and heavier on the mind”, dealing with being pushed to the wall, introspection, old acquaintances and equally old stories, carried by country and 70s influences with big riffs and soaring choruses.

La musique : être né dedans, c’est une affaire; s’en faire une vie, c’est de ça dont on parle. Jeune homme attachant et détaché originaire de Saint-Prime, Gab Bouchard lance de façon indépendante l’EP country-rock aux touches pop Cerveau-lent en 2017. Éperonné par l’engouement local, il met ensuite le cap sur Montréal afin de recréer le buzz dans la métropole, précédé de sa caractéristique moustache.

Premier jalon populaire, fruit de travail intégral et de peine d’amour, son album Triste pareil paraît à l’orée du premier confinement de 2020, ne lui permettant de faire des spectacles de lancement qu’à Montréal et Québec. Et même si sa première ronde de concerts a été sabordée, il a pu se reprendre en grand avec un lot d’apparitions dans des festivals à l’été 2021, et entame sur deux hivers la création de son second album, Grafignes.

Paru en août 2022, Grafignes témoigne du chemin parcouru depuis le premier, prenant davantage son temps et son espace. Une collection aux thèmes à la fois « plus lousses et plus lourds sur le mental », traitant d’être acculé au pied du mur, d’introspection, de vieilles connaissances et d’aussi vieilles histoires, portée par des influences country et 70s aux gros riffs et aux chœurs planants.
