{"product_id":"mes-souliers-sont-rouges_faut-se-meler_2022","title":"Faut se mêler","description":"\"Faut se mêler,\" the 8th album by Mes Souliers Sont Rouges, raises the bar. The five musicians traverse their sparkling folk with a depth of song inspired by today's world, embraced by history to deliver 12 original compositions of high instrumental mastery and pure poetry. Mes Souliers Sont Rouges keeps its promise of transcendence and fits into big shoes. They have preserved the frameworks of dance songs from traditions, adding new colors to them. They have shaken up their arrangements to carve out discovery paths from Quebec to the southern United States. With strings, winds, and their inseparable tap board, they have explored Native American lands, approached the coasts of the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean. The crew brought back memories from Ireland and Brittany to add a touch of Celtic flavor. \n\nThe musicians commissioned Marion Cousineau, Florent Vintrignier, and Benoit Viquesnel to deliver their versions of the world, the relationship between humans and nature, consumer society, the desire to possess, and the society of men and women. They challenged themselves to a five-handed writing exercise for the final song that gives the album its name. Ten songs written in beautiful French unfold slices of life and share reflections. The themes can be tender, funny, sometimes terrible and fierce. The lyrics are well-researched, substantial, even juicy, and just as delicate. A skillful balance of instrumental and poetic nuances. \n\nMes Souliers Sont Rouges welcome voices on two tracks that feel like obvious choices. For the first time, a woman's voice, Amélie les Crayons. Tender and bright on \"Maraîcher mon ami,\" she offers a counterpoint to the straightforward laughter of the four boys on \"À Ch’val\" by La Rue Kétanou. The 12 tracks of this unique album spark curiosity and keep us on the edge of our seats from start to finish. \n\nA beautiful work, produced with fervor and intensity. Mes Souliers Sont Rouges took the time to mature this 8th album to the brink of exhaustion. It's up to you to listen to grasp its strength and to listen again to uncover all its subtleties.","brand":"Mes Souliers Sont Rouges","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58400652460376,"sku":null,"price":23946301.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/3521383468029.jpg?v=1788561339","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en-us\/products\/mes-souliers-sont-rouges_faut-se-meler_2022","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
