With *La Fresque*, his eighth album, Vincent Delerm weaves a vibrant musical tapestry, where each song is an emotion painted with unforgettable words and melodies. Fragments of lives, his own and others', of faces and voices in a kaleidoscope that form a whole.
"Tôt ou Tard presents an album with distant shadows, moving bodies, silhouettes…". Six years after *Panorama*, the filmmaker-singer with a beating heart, Vincent Delerm, further expands his sentimental journey with *La Fresque*. This eighth album's spoken title track, with an arrangement full of electronic palpitations and sweeping strings by French 79, serves as the opening credits. It's the beginning of a long fresco in fourteen scenes and as many musical variations, from rich, orchestral pop to midnight blue ballads, enveloped in shadows and light, produced by Jean Sylvain Le Gouic (Juveniles), Paco Del Rosso, French 79, and Rémy Galichet (also responsible for arrangements), for lyrics where Delerm's ultrasensitive artistry resonates more than ever. It speaks of life, death, love, a lonesome cowboy and the numerous lonely souls who don't know they are, a Japanese word that expresses the exhilaration of encounters, a Paris of illusions and the Pyrenees of the worst tragedies, and even Madonna. Fragments of lives, his own and others', of faces and voices in a kaleidoscope that form a whole. A fresco. Unforgettable.
