Vincent Roberge is undoubtedly an emerging leader in creative Quebec pop. His musical references are in perfect harmony with the very best chillwave, soul/R&B, hip hop and even English punk-jazz references. An overall sound that’s appealingly gritty, a performance equally casual and precise (with William Côté, drums, Pierre-David Girard, bass, Félix Petit, saxophone and keyboards, and Jérôme Beaulieu, keyboards), poetic flights feathered in familiar language, a voice that’s stronger than it might seem, La nuit est une panthère, as well as the recent Expansion Pack EP, signal the concrete start of a creative cycle that promises to bear fruit for the years to come.
