Formerly known as a drummer and vocalist for many bands, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Fantin Moreno (aka Pale Male) goes on a solo venture, inhabited by a vital need to express raw emotions. No disguise, no filter. A Pale Male is what he sees in the mirror every morning, but it’s also a mixed bag of vivid yet paradoxical emotions, « pêle-mêle », as the French saying describes. Pain, uncertainty, anger then serenity, fear then hope. In no particular order.
His debut 6-track EP (2018) was followed by a US and Europe tour in 12 countries, in addition of various renowned Swiss stages as well as notable radio-playlist time. Then the pandemic hit... And now Pale Male is back with a new album !
"Season Finale" tastes like a good TV show : with each episode comes a tone and a story, whether it’s folk/americana subtlety or 80’s rock, from the orchestral touches of a string ensemble to the immense landscapes of a lap steel, without forgetting the majestic call of a horn section.
Fantin Moreno plays almost all the instruments himself (guitars, drums, bass, keys, percussion, vocals) which reinforces the personal dimension and authenticity of his productions. Also, it’s cheaper this way.
As the first line of the first song he ever wrote says : Pale Male « is a simple man, he can’t lie to people. » And that’s what you’ll find in his music : a bare soul, pure honesty. With room left for your imagination.
