" Le Silence " is Jimmy Hunt 's big comeback on the Quebec music scene. The album follows the eponymous Jimmy Hunt (2010), a sensitive folk album imbued with references from the past, and Maladie d'amour (2013), an undisputed masterpiece of Quebec pop where the suave euphony du Gainsbourg and Christophe of the 1970s combined with the contemporary approaches of Sébastien Tellier and Katerine. " The Silence " recounts the new life of Jimmy Hunt in his remote country, but above all, the last moments lived with his father before he leaves for the big sleep. It is through silence, the pivotal theme of the disc, that he tells his story. In words, Jimmy Hunt invokes the passage of time, in order to digest this loss, thinking of nothing, in silence.
Considered one of the great songwriters of his generation, he presents a new folk album, both dark and luminous, in tune with the current situation. The album was recorded in December 2019 and released as a surprise amid the pandemic in May 2020. It was warmly received by Jimmy's fans and the media. The physical version is eagerly awaited by the artist's fans. Let's take advantage of this apocalyptic silence of 2020 to listen to that of an artist, a real one, that of Jimmy Hunt .
