In a parallel universe, Roxane Bruneau could be Quebec’s most irreverent TV host, flexing the natural comedic talent that she displays in her popular social-media video posts. But in this life, she’s settled for being one of the province’s most striking pop stars. On her 2017 debut, Dysphorie, Bruneau put her platinum pipes to captivating use on the fiery folk stomper “Des p’tits bouts de toi,” a love-at-first-sight devotional that unfolds like a transcript of her most intimate DMs. Since then, Bruneau has continued to probe matters of the heart while expanding her musical canvas to accommodate atmospheric alt-rock and R&B textures on 2020’s Acrophobie and the simmering 2023 single “Le blanc des yeux.”
