THE RECORD
LITTLE SONGS /
Colter Wall (2023)
With Little Songs, Colter Wall takes us on a timeless journey through the vast North American landscapes. True to his raw and authentic style, the 28-year-old Canadian singer-songwriter crafts ballads of masterful simplicity, where every note echoes the past.
His deep, gravelly voice, paired with stripped-down arrangements, transports us between endless prairies and lonely campfires. An album to be savoured slowly, with closed eyes and a wandering soul.
THE BOOK
PASSÉ IMPARFAIT /
Kinky Friedman (1998)
Writer, musician, private detective (at least on paper), Kinky Friedman is a true pop culture icon. A former country singer turned author of offbeat crime novels, he blends sharp humor, razor-sharp dialogues, and meticulously crafted plots.
With his unmistakable style, oscillating between darkness and biting pop irony, he plunges us into a new investigation where memories and mysteries intertwine in the free-spirited, folk-infused New York of the late sixties.
THE INSTRUMENT
FENDER STRATOCASTER /
Leo Fender (1954)
A shape and a sound. The Stratocaster is a legend of design and musical innovation. Conceived by Leo Fender, it stands out with its sculpted, ergonomic body, designed for ultimate comfort. Its three single-coil pickups and revolutionary tremolo system opened the door to entirely new sonic possibilities, blending crystal-clear tones with expressive power.
Inspired by the curves and colors of 1950s American cars, the Strat has transcended generations to become the instrument of choice for the greatest names in Blues and Rock—from Jimi Hendrix to Eric Clapton, David Gilmour, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and countless others.
THE MOVIE
SCENT OF A WOMAN /
Martin Brest (1992)
Al Pacino embodies Frank Slade, a blind, disillusioned, and incredibly charismatic former lieutenant colonel. When a young student becomes his caretaker for a weekend, what was supposed to be a simple assignment turns into an unforgettable life lesson for both men.
With sharp dialogues, moments of pure grace, and a now-iconic tango scene, the emotional tension is palpable throughout. A film that explores solitude, regret, and honor with rare precision.
