When the world seems to be automatically generating everything we consume, the value of human art becomes all the more mesmerising and valuable, and so, in its purity, freedom, and timeless charm; this album is an essential and profoundly rewarding experience.
Pauline Frechette
If you’re searching for a playlist this winter that feels seasonal – brings warmth, calm, togetherness – but that doesn’t quite line up with the big-band, vocal-driven feel of the majority of releases, Winter Romance is easily worth a look.
The unexpectedly haunting new single from Pauline Frechette. This dark or deeply reflective jazz aura emerges, alongside of which Pauline’s emotional performance seeks to captivate & hypnotize listeners.
The story told by these notes & the varying levels of emotion beautifully highlights the feeling of this peaceful, thoughtful, reflective walk in the snow.
All at once distant & intimate. The artist’s vocal performance is gentler here than on previous recordings, though it always has a captivating softness.
The title suggests a devotion, and the music explores the feelings, the concept, and hints at the possibilities as to what the song truly represents.
The song has a captivating delicacy, expressed almost as a whisper, with lyrics that consistently light up the concept & this feeling of quiet & calm.
There’s an honesty about the song that is often more associated with folk music. The instrumentation is creatively interesting & appealing.
