Please, Wait...

Description

The first album by Maxwell Farrington & Le SuperHomard, ‘Once’ (Talitres, April 2021), was the story of a meeting. Initially fortuitous, we quickly had the certainty that this encounter would last. This timeless, sunny pop, these subtle arrangements, this majestic singing were much more than just a trial run. Released in spring 2022, ‘I Had it All’ (EP) confirmed the obvious: the duo's compositions are imbued with an unwavering chemistry and contagious generosity. - - On stage, the playfulness of Maxwell Farrington and the elegance of the musicians win over both loyal fans and newcomers. Endorsed by Paul Weller, the band also opened for the modfather during his recent European tour. To top it all off, within the legendary Abbey Road studio, Christophe Vaillant also collaborated with Paul Weller on tracks for his upcoming album. - - ‘Please, Wait…’ is the result of a closer collaboration between the two musicians. The complementarity of Maxwell Farrington and Christophe Vaillant reveals new facets here. After initial studio sessions in autumn 2022, and with the aim of offering new tones for this second album, a partnership was established with the Opéra de Nancy. Beyond the exchange and correspondence between classical and contemporary music, under the gilded strings, brass, and woodwinds, the compositions take on a new turn and a new breadth. - - ‘Please, Wait…’ is an ode to travel and dreams. Deeply sensory, the music of Maxwell Farrington & Le SuperHomard guides the listener towards a elsewhere that each person can make their own.
