Beyond norms and fashions, Eric Vincentâs new album is a magnificent journey among some of the highs and lows of life, with a distinct undercurrent of joy and affirmation. His finely honed lyrics reference several other artists :
⢠âLâor de lâinstantâ, capstone and title of this new album, was inspired by Albert CAMUSâ âMyth of Sisyphusâ
⢠âLes Bosses dans le jardinâ references Italian novelist Dino BUZZATI
⢠âAlfredâ is an homage to Alfred Jarry
⢠âPeinture hongroiseâ is dedicated to the painter, Tivadar CSONTVARY
⢠âEtrange mélancolieâ, written with Georges MOUSTAKI, will be the first single along with ⢠âMa libidoâ, a reggae with a rather humorous messageâ¦
⢠âLe Jardin suspenduâ composed when the singer was on tour in Angola and G.W. Bush was deciding to invade Iraq.
⢠âSi je marche à tatons", ⢠âPrière à l'enfant", ⢠âFleurs des ondes"
All those musical compositions are exceptionally beautiful and richly layered and well served by superb musicians as well as by Ericâs own distinctive voice and outstanding guitar.

This singer-songwriter has had an exceptional and singular career. He has appeared in over 140 countries where he returns regularly, singing entirely in French for audiences which are, on the whole, not French-speaking. He speaks several languages and is able to communicate with his audiences in their own language. One day, he headlines the program at the Hanoi Opera or the Manaus Opera in Brazil, on another heâs in front of 3,000 people at Ancol in Jakarta or, again, a crowd of several thousand fans who sang along with his refrains on the Place Toussaint-Louverture in Jacmel, Haiti, just a few weeks before the terrible earthquake there.
Eric VINCENT is nourished by these multicolored successes. His songs are published in the U.S. in French textbooks used in high schools and colleges. The French publisher, Didier/Hachette, picked up the idea and published âSi on chantait avec Eric Vincentâ, which has made its way around the world.
VINCENT alternates his peregrinations with stays in France which he enjoys spending either in the province where he was born, La Mayenne, or on his barge docked right in the heart of Paris,at the Port de lâArsenal at the Bastille.
