LE BRUIT DEHORS (vinyl)

Description

Human beings facing a group, human beings facing nature, human beings struggling between their cultures, their bodies and their buildings. Human beings who aspire to solitude or fear it. That is what flows from Goël’s pen and the gallery of characters, materials, animals... That is what populates his enclosed settings with sometimes absurd decor. Goël is the culmination of a strange and winding journey. From drawing to music, from metal to French chanson, from studies in art and philosophy to the crafting of acoustic arrangements, from the Breton countryside to Paris and its suburbs, Gilles Grohan has evolved his modes of expression as well as his fields of learning. “Goël appears as an obvious choice: an immediately seductive voice, a bucolic folk sung in French and gently familiar, ambivalent melodies that warm the heart. And above all, the smart idea of giving an acoustic color to his melodies. Even more, the arrangements are as bold as they are elegant. As much a pleasure for the senses as for the mind, even evoking the visionary Owen Pallett.” Benzine
