Virginie B releases Autoportrait, the fourth single from Astral 2000, her sophomore album due out September 20th, 2024. The singer-songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist will present her new tracks at album launch shows in Montreal (September 26th) and Quebec City (October 12th) before heading off to France for a series of dates.
On Autoportrait, Virginie B takes a moment to look in the mirror and reflect on her place in the world. The song boasts a sticky bassline reminiscent of '80s synthpop, while its textures and melodies sound like they've been lifted from a video game. This connection to the gaming world is also reflected in Virginie’s lyrics, who, like the main characters of our favourite games, constantly needs a quest or a goal to achieve to give meaning to her life.
This fall, Virginie B will celebrate the release of her new album with launch shows at Le Belmont in Montreal on September 26th (presented as part of POP Montréal) and Le Pantoum in Quebec City on October 12th. She will then travel across the Atlantic for a series of shows in France. See the list below for more details.
