Originally hailing from Montreal but now apparently hanging out with Phil Elverum (Mt. Eerie, The Microphones) in Anacortes, Washington, Geneviève Castrée leads the wonderful ambient-pop project Ô Paon, with which she recently released a beautiful little album called Fleuve.
As a fellow Canadian in exile in America, I especially relate to the album’s expression of yearning “for a certain place at a certain time, something which no longer exists, something you’ll never be able to re-live,” and the strange, scary feeling of not knowing when you’ll finally go back to your home and native land in the great white North.
