Singer-songwriter Jesse McCormack is back with a second album, titled single. By his own admission, three key ingredients were used to concoct these 10 new, electric-flavored pieces: time, distance, and treatment. At 32, the multi-instrumentalist deals with the failure of love as well as denial and renewal. If you liked the singles by James Blake, Caribou or Thom Yorke, listen up.

In the fall of 2019, Pierre Lapointe revealed a beautiful album titled to thwart boredom. The twelve songs full of humanity that make up this composition produced by Albin de la Simone, are at the heart of the show that Pierre La Pointe will perform on Friday, April 8, at the Grand Théâtre. The lucky ones who will be in the room will be able to allow themselves to calm down with these beautiful, tender and sometimes somber songs.
