Mike Rimbaud had not released an album for almost 12 years. Since the early 90s, he has become a New York poet/rocker in the vein of Lou Reed or Elliott Murphy. Mike lived in France for 4 years, where a loyal following listened to his records with fervor. During those years, he formed a new band and devoted himself a lot to painting. Mike Rimbaud returns in great shape, rejuvenated and still carrying the sincerity and energy of an authentic rocker from the Big Apple who has witnessed the emergence of all the rock, folk, and pop scenes in New York City for the past twenty years. He also saw, while walking with his son, the towers catch fire and collapse just a few hundred meters from Alphabet City, his favorite neighborhood. Once again, Mike finds song titles that he keeps secret. Each one tells a story with original and often funny metaphors. The hallmark of an outsider who has built his career off the beaten path and has always known what independence and freedom mean. Often compared to Springsteen, Chris Isaak, or Costello, Mike Rimbaud adds to this rock legacy an exotic and Latin touch from his stays in Brazil, familiar to NYC. He belongs to the world of originals from this unsinkable megacity that France loves, like the late Willy DeVille or Alan Vega. A rare singer.
