Julien Bouchard talks about his album in the new issue of Persona! "Full of passion and sumptuous finds".

After “Songs from la Chambre” in 2017 which, as its title suggests, mixed pieces in French and English, Julien Bouchard chose to sing only in his mother tongue on his new album, mischievously titled “Excuse My French” (Hot Pumarecords).The music is still Anglo-Saxon, reminiscent of the heyday of indie rock with guitars (plus a bit of synth) and melancholic folk of the 90s. The recording in his home studio in the Vosges, inautarky, brought a slight lo-fi touch that fits the music perfectly.

"To illustrate this, he immerses us in a not so distant universe of the late 60s in the United States, between carelessness, sexual liberation, paroxysmal deshinibition, liberation of bodies and infamous military influence, sectarian or institutionalized racism. Never disillusioned, but not naive either, Julien covers everything with an indie pop, whose codes he masters with uncommon skill. Madness of men."
