Barriol, Hugo
Everywhere Anywhere
As its name suggests, "Everywhere / Anywhere /" Hugo Barriol's new album was recorded everywhere. In his van, on a road trip between Morocco, Spain and Portugal at the end of 2022; between his Parisian apartment and his hotel room in Dubai, or in a friend's studio or in the kitchen of his mother's house, Hugo offers us an album which calls to travel and which touches us by its sincerity and its power. Always accompanied by his guitar, Hugo explores and mixes this time electronic and folk sounds with more synthesizers, horns, piano and cords. "I put in this album everything I wanted, everything the songs needed to be as close as possible to my vision and to themselves". Influenced and nourished by the strength of Florence and the machine, the sweetness of the Lumineers and the genius of Bon Iver, Hugo creates his own universe, a fusion of new folk and pop.
