Today, Bobby Bazini unveils “Et à la fin”, the final glimpse of his upcoming album “Seul au cinéma”.

The project is produced by Bobby Bazini and released under exclusive license with Spectra Musique.

“Et à la fin” carries us into a world both gentle and rhythmic—perfect for feeling serene with a smile on your face.

“One morning, I was driving to Montreal, heading to Connor’s studio, listening to Ruby Lee by Bill Withers in my headphones—a song that Connor and I are particularly fond of. When I arrived, I wanted to write something inspired by that kind of soul music, which shaped my beginnings. But for the first time, I wanted to do it in my mother tongue.” - Bobby Bazini.

About ‘’Seul au cinéma’’

For fifteen years, Bobby Bazini hesitated to sing in French. The desire was there, of course, but for years he postponed the project, unsure of how to approach it, filled with doubts, and wondering whether his audience would follow him on that path. In 2022, he finally began working on a French-language album with Connor Seidel, but the project was temporarily put on hold. During his “Pearl” tour, he went back to school and found the inspiration for ‘’Seul au cinéma’’ during a free afternoon spent wandering through a multiplex cinema. The album is built around the concept of nine theaters, nine songs—each one exploring a facet of his search for identity and solitude.

Musically, Bobby Bazini and Connor Seidel drew inspiration from French-language albums like ‘’La tête en gigue’’ (Jim et Bertrand) and ‘’Rêver mieux’’ (Daniel Bélanger). They opted for a stripped-down approach, blending acoustic guitars with modern textures through the use of synthesizers and sampling, going so far as to incorporate sounds recorded in movie theaters to enhance the atmosphere. Several musicians contributed to the project: Robbie Kuster on drums, Conner Molander on keyboards, Alex Francoeur on flute and saxophone, and Odessa Pagé on backing vocals.

‘’Seul au cinéma’’ will be released on September 19, and Bobby has never been more excited ahead of an album launch. To him, it feels like attending the premiere of his own film, as if he’s seeing himself play his own role. He wonders if his audience will follow him on this new journey.

Having long found his identity through his idols, Bobby Bazini now moves forward stripped down, without artifice, expressing himself in his own language.
