CARACOL, hailing from Montreal, Canada, presents her first solo release «L'arbre aux parfums», a more mature, personal and introspective album. The album is built on raw emotion and is a unique blend of american folk, old jamaican rocksteady, with a singer‑songwriter and a vintage 50's feel. It is likened by some to Indie‑pop and features the sounds of the ukulele, the autoharp and a good old acoustic guitar! Primarily written in french, but also including two english tracks, the lyrics explore the sometimes darker side of human emotions and relationships through anger, love, contempt, arrogance and the search for something more. It's a straight from the heart, no holds‑barred expression of the human condition. At times sarcastic, but never tragic,''L'arbre aux parfums'' reveals our raw humanity. Using surrealistic imagery inspired by films such as ''Oh Brother Where Art Thou?'' the songs at times evoke a hawaiian ballroom or a throwback to the vinyl records of days gone by. Produced by Sébastien Blais‑Montpetit (DJ Champion et ses G‑Strings), and surrounded by an all‑star cast of musicians :Maxime Lepage on bass (DobaCaracol), Justin Allard on drums (Daniel Bélanger), François Lafontaine on keys (Karkwa), and David Laflèche on guitar, CARACOL looks to pick up where Dobacaracol left off.
