Barrdo - Équivoques vol. 1 (2022)

The fourth album from this band from Canada.

The band is a quartet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars and vocals.

The band was supported by half a dozen of guests who provided strings, woodwinds, flutes, moog, organ and piano.

This band has so far released three intriguing albums. Albums somewhere between Ange, Harmonium and The Beatles. Albums with French vocals.

I was full of expectations when I put on this album. A pretty short album, clocking in at half an hour.

Yes, we still have a lot of Ange, Harmonium and The Beatles influences. The band has added more folk rock and a bit more jazz to their music.

The music is pastoral and softly spoken. The vocals and the vocal harmonies are great.

It is also very cleverly made with the strings and woodwinds adding small but vital details to their music. 

The band has again delivered a very good album.

Gosh, this band should get a much bigger audience than the one they have got. Talking about hidden gems....

3.5 points
