Festival Hall
Doors 7:00 pm; show 8:00 pm
The concept for his just-release album Seul au cinéma was born from years of exploring and discovering French language music after the liberating realization that his full last name was Bazinet, plus the experience of performing in a venue that was part of a movie theatre complex. It felt like drifting through fragments of stories, like hopping from one dream to another, never seeing how any of them ended. The concept clicked instantly: Seul au cinéma — Alone at the Movies. Nine rooms. Nine songs. Nine films telling a story of identity, Bobby’s story, through solitude. The album’s sonic universe balances acoustic instrumentation, rich chord progressions, underpinned by melodies you sing at the top of your lungs at concerts or in the car. It began with two guitars and a computer, adding layers through synths and sampling plus strings, keys, flute and sax to create ambient sounds captured in cinemas.
