- The French artist moves from viola to synthesizers on her latest LP, out in October.
Colleen has a new album on the way.
A Flame My Love, A Frequency sees French artist Cécile Schott putting aside her signature viola de gamba and instead focusing on small synthesizers and Moog pedals. She wrote the album after visiting a relative in Paris and barely missed being at the scene of the November 2015 terror attacks, ruminating on life and death as a result. Thrill Jockey, the label releasing the record, calls it Schott's most vulnerable, with "spare synth looped arrangements and unoverdubbed vocals mirroring the album's core concepts."
The new record is Schott's third after returning from a six-year hiatus in 2013, and follows 2015's well-received Captain Of None.
