Indie Quebecois
Upcoming Geoffroy Tour
Geoffroy is an essential voice in Canadian music. Now three LPs into a career that has solidified him as one of Quebec’s best artists, the Montreal songwriter and producer takes the next step internationally with the release of fourth full-length Good Boy. The project was sparked with the intention of creating Geoffroy’s most authentic work to date, blending organic instrumentation and electronic elements into a bright and rich album filled with diverse sounds, a collection of songs that moves beyond the brooding depth that has defined recent works. Here there is room for an atmosphere of light, appreciation, and well-being. Music for warm days and nights, imbued with rich experiences for those who immerse themselves. The album is the latest in a stellar run of LPs, including debut Coastline (2017), 1952 (2019) and Live Slow Die Wise (2022). Each album has reflected a different tone and period in the artist’s life and his evolution and experimentation with different sonic pallets. In this case, Good Boy sees Geoffroy incorporate a diverse collection of new background musicians and singers that brings the album to life in vibrant colour. That diversity was driven by a gradual shift in Geoffroy’s influences, having spent recent years immersing himself in the worlds of Cumbia music and a range of other latin and African rhythmic styles, that melded with his traditional singer-songwriter roots to create something that feels truly international. http://geoffroymusic.com
