(Cancelled) Raphael Weinroth-Browne

by Michel Rondeau

He’s a member of the Kamancello duo with Shahriyar Jamshid, a player of the Kurdish kamancheh (a bowed string instrument with a timre similar to a violin’s), and has participated in more than a hundred recordings, many of them for film and television. He’s performed at several festivals, played with Pauline Oliveros and Dutch cellist Ernst Reijseger, recorded and toured with the Norwegian progressive rock/metal band Leprous… but had no solo album to his credit. Tonight’s concert is just the occasion for its release. The music is intimate, even enveloping, with rich ambiences that unfold in space like the northern lights we sometimes see undulating in the summer sky.

The Foreign Resort • La Mécanique • Morte Psíquica

by Geneviève Gendreau

The Danish trio will once again hit the road for a short North American tour, which they will begin at home, between two European tours. This time, they are performing at the Velouria Festival II, organized by the Montreal label Velouria Recordz. While they claim a clear affiliation with The Cure, especially in the rich, dark voice of Mikkel Borbjerg Jakobsen, the band has a clean, refined sound with an energetic melancholy. They’ll present his latest album, Outnumbered, released in April 2019 on Artoffact Records.

Simon Kearney

by Alain Brunet

In early 2019, Simon Kearney released the songs of Open House, which he affectionately refers to as “pop ’n’ roll“. Let’s be a little more specific and call his songs indie pop mixed with rock, blues, funk, groove and hip hop. Kearney’s lyrics are mostly autobiographical, often self-deprecating or downright absurd. Zero headache, pop entertainment with a rock attitude, a certain lucidity… and that’s all for now.
