Additional Information
Rau_Ze is a singer-songwriter duo composed of Rose Perron and Félix Paul. Together, they blend their worlds—Félix’s Cartesian rigor and Rose’s poetic intuition—to create vibrant, heartfelt, and irresistibly danceable neo-soul R&B.
Their debut album Virer nos vies, released in 2024 on 117 Records, sincerely addresses romantic relationships, mental health, addiction, and invisible work. Combining influences from jazz, funk, hip-hop, trip-hop, and Y2K pop, the duo unfolds an authentic writing style, carried by warm grooves and a great humanity. The album, which has accumulated nearly two million streams, was celebrated to sold-out audiences in Montreal and Quebec City, and earned them numerous notable accolades.
Rau_Ze presents today Re;;;Virer nos vies, an expanded and expanded version of the first opus. With two new eclectic tracks, Félix Paul and Rose Perron once again demonstrate their versatility and their desire to reinvent themselves, without ever betraying their distinctive musical signature. The rhythmic warmth of Brazilian music from the 60s and 70s permeates La dérive, while the cyberpunk energy of Travaille toute la nuit brings back the raw passion of their stage performances.
Accompanied by Henri Bouchard (bass), Juan Espitia (drums) and Julien Fillion (saxophone), they offer an electric and sensitive show, where Rose’s intense voice and the group’s complicity transport the audience between gentleness and explosion.
Rau_Ze performs at Coup de Cœur Francophone on November 6 at 9 p.m. at Rockette Bar.
