On Tonky, the self-taught sculptor and musician writes another shattering love poem to the human race.
Lou Val has made fans out of some of the top players in his native Toronto’s closely-knit music scene, and for good reason.
As the title suggests, his latest work, Goûter, provides a taste of what the singer/songwriter does best. Syrupy R&B-tinged vocals draw from memory and life lessons, tempered by washed out guitars and silky drum loops. This brand of post-Frank Ocean genre-bending finds its natural successor in Lou Val.
