A few weeks after opening for Milk & Bone at a sold-out Corona Theatre in Montreal, Geoffroy shares the title track of his EP, Soaked in Gold , which premiered via COMPLEX. Soaked in Gold follows You Say, which quickly became popular across the Quebec media. The song was included on ELLE Magazine’s Sound of Summer international compilation playlist and the music video has been viewed over 30K times on YouTube.
The EP will be released on November 13th via Bonsound. You can stream and share Soaked in Gold via Soundcloud.
Written and composed by Geoffroy and Max Gendron, and co-produced by Gabriel Gagnon, Soaked in Gold is about making love, about a woman’s infinite beauty. Both heavy and smooth, the song is quite a challenge to perform live. We went heavy on synths and bass on that one, Geoffroy explains. I particularly like the outro of the song where we tried to strip everything down to leave only vocals and a big bass drop to finish.
Launch parties in Montreal and Quebec City will take place respectively on November 17th at Casa del Popolo and December 3rd at Petit Impérial (presented by Festival d’été de Québec). Geoffroy will also be playing on November 20th at the RIDM Headquarters during M for Montreal.

Sampha and Chet Faker are good points of reference, but Geoffroy’s inclination towards electro-acoustic experimentation puts him in a category all his own.

Geoffroy offre une électro-pop bardée de synthétiseurs et de beatbox, pour en faire une jolie pièce accrocheuse.

Geoffroy is nothing short of pure gold in its musical form.
