The Franco-Ontarian singer-songwriter and founding member of the legendary group Garolou , Michel Lalonde , is back in force with a new album. Comme un machine will appear on the Full Stereo label of brothers Pierre and François Lamoureux.

The ten songs of the album are reflections on love, friendship, the environment, the planet, life what! The texts reveal a simple poetry on which hovers the gaze of a man whose words, certainly matured, never however yield to cynicism or fatalism The title track is a good example where the image of pure and raw energy of the youth who take to the streets to decry the inertia in the face of the challenges of our so battered world, reminds us that this machine, this mass of earth and humanity, we are all part of it.

Tinted with folk-rock, country, Cajun and "Americana" sounds, Comme un engin was largely recorded in Prince Edward Island and produced by Rémi Arsenault (Natalie MacMaster) with the collaboration of Ed Stasium (The Ramones, Talking Heads, Motorhead), the album represents a turning point for Lalonde, an incursion into a world where the poetry of a seasoned poet is combined with the energy of Acadian salty rock under the director's touch , Rémi Arsenault . The first single, J'suis fait comme ça , with its catchy melody and the distinctive voice of Michel Lalonde , takes us back to the finest days of Garolou .

With two Félixes and more than 225,000 albums sold in his career, Garolou 's legacy in the history of Quebec music is indisputable and Michel Lalonde had a lot to do with it. With this third solo album, he comes to confirm what his fans have always known, that under the skin of this wolf who gave life to our greatest choruses, hides for a long time a committed and passionate singer. With Comme un engin , Michel Lalonde takes the machine one step further!
