Vinyl LP pressing. 2022 release from Montreal songwriter and producer Jesse Mac Cormack. In the deepest depths of the Pandemic, with a relationship in it's ending, Mac Cormack recalls sending a text to his therapist: "I'm not meeting with you every week just to hang out," the bilingual musician wrote. "Je veux que ça saigne"-for the work to "bleed." To mean something. The next time they met, his therapist explained: "That message you sent me? You were really sending it to yourself. You were taking a decision." That decision-to move forward, to change and have the courage to love yourself-is the journey of the past two years and also of Solo, which gleams and shivers and pulses with the heartbeat of an artist in beautiful evolution. A softer album than his debut LP Now (2019), it is nonetheless riven by the fear and flood of disappointment that marked these recent years-and the singer's childhood.
