The beginning of the relationship. The fire, the passion. This really beautiful thing that doesn’t last. These are moments that mark us forever. We all keep very specific memories of them. Once the fog has lifted, it can all seem like a dream that never happened. Afterwards, life catches up to us. We fall back into the patterns that have been holding us back since our very first relationship. We’re also influenced by the example of our parents. It’s tempting to constantly move on to another dream, as soon as the flame goes out.

-- Lyrics --
One day at the time
You are everybody else but mine
If we leave it behind
We go again and we stand in the line
And I’m missing the desert fun
Yeah, what could we do to keep it forever?
No, we’re not the only ones
Wild spirits are looking young
There’s a hole in my chest
When I think of the times out west
Lovin’ you for the best
Whenever I wanted, no regrets
And I’m missing the desert fun
Yeah, what could we do to keep it together?
No, we’re not the only ones
Wild spirits are looking young
You can’t save me
You can’t bring me back
From the way they raised me
And every single lack
And I’m missing the desert fun
Yeah, what could we do to keep it together?
No, we’re not the only ones
Wild spirits are looking young
And I’m missing the desert fun
Yeah, what could we do to keep it together?
No, we’re not the only ones
Wild spirits are looking young

SOLO is the sound of that transformation, recorded over the course of a year and a half, marked by its hardships but also
its relief. Across 10 rippling tracks, the singer summons a sonic world that's razor-edged and intimate, influenced by the textured electronics of James Blake, Caribou and SUUNS. Drum machines stutter under blooms of synths; curses float below swirls of loving sound....more
Un excellent album de lo-fi hiphop qui m'a souvent laissé chanter certains refrains au travail sans m'en rendre compte. J'suis fier que cet album vienne du Québec <3 Alex Jesus
The Besnard Lakes return with their first new LP in four years, full of the same mystery and wonder on which they have built their name. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 30, 2020
The Besnard Lakes are back with a new 12", and a new single. Expansive and psychedelic, much like the band's previous work. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 29, 2016
J'avais vu son dernier spectacle au FME en 2021, mais j'ai l'impression que ça passé comme une étoile filante! Le son était incroyable! Va falloir qu'il le refasse. C'était tellement magique. Lavinie Cloutier
