Every birth gets a baptism, and every rebirth, a new name. A first name, in this specific case, that Olivia Merilahti chose to define the identity and nature of this first solo musical adventure. A project of multidimensional pop, which goes by the name and echoes of an alter-ego from elsewhere: Prudence. After shining for over ten years within the duo The Do, Olivia's solo path emerged at the end of their last tour. Another direction that took time to become clear, authentic and irresistible, to be born today as a dual vigilante. This Prudence, whose freedom allows Olivia's songwriting to enter another sphere. One where constraints finally crack to let her own light shine through. Always driven by a dedicated love for pop in all its forms and a desire to capture the zeitgeist, Prudence's first album draws its roots from various settings. As inspired by synthetic machine pioneers, Suzanne Ciani leading the way, as by Kraftwerk, Sia, or Drake, not to mention Hans Zimmer's original soundtracks, particularly that of the film Interstellar, Prudence evolves in the city as in the sky, urban and celestial. Assisted by a diverse crew of collaborators (Xavier de Justice, Surkin,...) for this new project, Prudence uses the distance between herself and her creator to convey her messages. Nothing is impossible anymore, one just needs the conviction and courage. This is precisely one of this heroine's missions. Woman, sister, mother, vigilante, fourth star of Cat's Eyes, neo-Rachael from Blade Runner, the "Ghost in the Shell" in the mirror that emerges after dark, and offers its power to the eyes of the world. The power to set science fiction to music in the service of reality. And to rise.
