Tout Bleu
Kraut Art Pop Orchestrale
The utterly gloomy Tout Bleu return to the village like the gypsy Melquiades, a key character from "One Hundred Years of Solitude", to share their discoveries with a third album, "You Are Tree". It takes a certain courage to offer music full of joy. One must say that this feeling, which accompanies all the weight of the world, has something burning within it for those who want to grasp it and pass it on to others. That is the task that Tout Bleu has taken on, the music at the end of the tunnel, which gives them something of experienced cave explorers, with this way of plunging into the scenery until you realize that our steps are actually moving the ground beneath our feet.
Led by their captain, Simone Aubert, a black belt master of melancholy, this album articulates the cry of the heart. The years on the road are slowly taking their toll, and the musicians—the crew—have agreed to carry their cross in the flames. The resulting emotional impact proves them right. In their utopian mission to re-enchant the world, the Tout Bleu, in their urgency, take the time to relieve one soul after another that crosses their path.
