Ceremony, The Doorman (Jesse Proteau and Vincent Réhel)

Thank you pandemic? You can’t say that any more than you can applaud a war. It nevertheless happens that creators create, adapt to circumstances. Sometimes for the best. Normally, Vincent Réhel would have had a full dance card, musical director for Charlebois or others. The abnormally free time and the unbearable isolation gave rise to the formation of an ad hoc duo, Réhel teaming up – at a distance – with a singer-songwriter. For the first time. He and Jesse Proteau exchanged texts and music, thus opening a new door: the friends have found a way of their own, very gentle, which they quite rightly describe as “chamber folk”. Guitar and piano at the base, fine arrangements of strings and keyboards all around, delicate harmonies: everything cradles songs which, quite naturally, evoke the human experience of recent years. What if the door no longer closes?
