The Capital of Plastic Daffodils
Fledgling Broken Song found a five-piece band! (See description below). Still warbling and naïve, one keyboard becomes multi-instrumental. The same songs take on a new life with the help of Nicolas Lê Quang (bass, keyboards, f/x, vocals & arrangements), Christian Richer (electric guitar, laptop, f/x, vocals), Simon Heller (flute, vocals), and Nicolas Gouin (drums & vocals). As creepy and quirky as ever, these deranged ditties for adult children are indeed demented, but gentle.
Fledgling Broken Song
Fledgling Broken Song: A warbling and naïve brand of off-kilter, creepy and quirky ditties for adult children in limbo. These are playful, minimal, absurd and mournful pieces that employ keyboard – as well as the occasional hand-held tape recorder or found object – to create self-conscious and meandering “songs.” Lately I have been performing what I call my “Victoria Karaoke” – accompanying myself on pre-recorded music tracks. A nice way to free up my hands and throw my body into it more.
When people ask, “What does it sound like?” I say, “Sesame Street invites the Danielson Famile to meet Daniel Johnston’s, Syd Barrett’s and Captain Beefheart’s offspring in the peanut butter aisle at the supermarket.”
But talking about music is like dancing around architecture. Maybe you would like to just hear my songs.
