Our Basement,
My music has been borne out of leaving my comfort zone. I packed my life up into a van and decided to leave my home province of Québec, driving all the way to Malibu, California, to begin writing with new collaborators.
So began the process which created My Lullaby, featuring the track, “Walk Out on Me.”
Maybe I’m a bit old fashioned, but I feel that great things take time.
This song reflects my feelings on how we give up on things too easily nowadays.
The greatest relationships are the ones you fight for.
“Walk Out on Me” started as a blueprint written with my drummer, Marc Beland. We then travelled to the west coast of British Columbia to work with Brian Howes (Mother Mother), who assisted us in finalizing the lyrics and production.
Making My Lullaby has cemented my faith in music – the healing power of it and the need for me to do this my entire life. There is nothing else I want more.
I left everything behind when I was at my lowest, but in doing so I rediscovered who I was and figured out how to move forward. I hope that these songs can accompany you along your own journey.
