Ariane Moffatt

Québecoise singer-songwriter Ariane Moffatt is one of this blogs favourite artists. The reason I haven't written about her before this post is primarily due to the fact that apart from last year's (wonderful) single "Soleil chaleur", Ariane's last album - 2012's "MA" - was released BB (Before Blog) and Ariane has taken time out from her musical career as she and partner Florence Marcil-Denault became parents...

But now she's back - not only with a new single "Debout" - but also a new album "22h22" via Simone Records (home of too many blog favourites to be true), that is scheduled for release on March 10th.

It's only January, but I suspect you'll have to go some to find a better example of dreamy, synth-pop as will be released this year. "Debout" is a stand-out dance-floor filler that brings to mind the up-tempo pop-songs of Face A of Fanny Bloom's "Pan" and is the most  beautiful and heartfelt of songs dedicated to the power and triumph of relationships and love...

 

Welcome back Ariane!
