With her new single “December”, VILLFORTH releases a song to end the year by telling a story that has made her who she is today. The singer grew up without a father and was never able to get to know him personally, except for a letter correspondence. He died shortly before her 16th birthday in December. Since then, the festive month has been holding a very melancholic meaning for her. But no matter how sad the story may seem, with lyrics like "I'm still hurting but I'm not broken", VILLFORTH wants to give hope to herself and others with a similar story.

From The Start

Gallows

“Mirrors / Tristesse” is a summer album about love, guilt, freedom and the versions of ourselves we try to outrun. Set against the heat of the Mediterranean coast, these twelve songs move through the first sparks of desire, the jealousy and mischief that follow, the quiet tragedies we don’t see until they’re already behind us, and the melancholy that becomes a permanent companion.

Built from a fusion of French chanson, chamber-folk and intimate indie storytelling, the album draws on the emotional architecture of Mirrors — self-interrogation, memory, the stories we perform — and carries it into the sun-drenched world of Bonjour Tristesse.

From the villa above the sea to the Parisian atelier, from the white suit on stage to the final acceptance of tristesse itself, these songs follow the arc of a summer that begins like a lie and ends like a lesson you never stop learning.

A coastal dream darkened by consequence — a sister album to Mirrors, and a chapter in its shadow.

Jealous Mission II

Feeling Good Is Good Enough Is the first full feature 12 track debut album by the little known band The Five and Tens. The Five and Tens are a diverse instrumental band based out of Mississauga, Ontario Canada named after highway intersection Hurontario and Dundas Street (5 & 10). They bring an eclectic mix of music from all different influences from around the world into one groove. They are the brothers in the groove. The quartet is formed of Sean Jackson on bass, Nick Vidal on Drums, Anthony Vidal on Keyboards and Ray Vidal on Guitar.

This album was recorded live off the floor and released out of the Five and Tens basement called Vidal Recordings. This record was mixed by brothers Anthony Vidal and Ray Vidal. It was later mastered by Chris Crerar at Metalworks Studio in Mississauga, ON Canada.
