Frannie Holder's album launch concert, built around her first solo record De grâce, takes place at Club Soda in Montreal. It is a single night of music, with Holder performing the album alongside her band. The show starts at 20:00.
About the show
Holder is a Montreal musician and composer, and the evening is designed as an extension of the record itself. Rather than a simple run-through of tracks, the performance is meant to carry the album's world onto the stage with her musicians.
The album is sung in French and draws on three styles:
- chanson, the French song tradition
- experimental pop
- trip-hop
That mix gives the music a textured, atmospheric quality, and the live setting suits it well for listeners who enjoy songwriting and careful arrangement.
Who it suits
This concert is a good choice for anyone curious about Montreal's francophone music scene, or for listeners who like songs that move between intimacy and experiment. Holder has previously worked with the groups Random Recipe and Dear Criminals, so fans of those projects may also find this a familiar and rewarding evening.
