Annie-Claude Deschênes (Duchess Says, PyPy) presents LES MANIÈRES DE TABLE, her first solo album! This joint release between Bonsound (Canada) and Italians Do It Better (rest of the world) is now available on all music services and will be out on vinyl on April 26th.
On her debut record, the multidisciplinary artist proposes to set the table differently by deconstructing the social codes of politeness. The result is as danceable and melodic as it is disquieting and dystopian, composed of samples of utensils, drum machines and sequencers.
Inspired by the pioneers of electronic music, LES MANIÈRES DE TABLE evokes Steve Reich’s minimalism, Kraftwerk’s synthetic textures, Herbie Hancock’s stylistic diversity and experimental cinema’s unconventional approach to narrative.
Known for her hypnotic presence and eccentric stage sets, Annie-Claude Deschênes delivers a live experience that takes the form of an improbable, experimental blend of minimal pop and cuisine, during which the audience is invited to interact with the artist using all of their senses. In order to bring this unusual yet festive dinner show to life, Annie-Claude has enlisted a culinary stylist. See the list below for all tour dates.
