One year after the release of her sophomore album, Claudia Bouvette
returns with DIARY FOR THE LONELY HEARTS ★ DELUXE, a deluxe version featuring four bonus tracks reimagined with the string quartet Strings from Paris. Conceived as idealized variants, these “romantic versions” are not only a way for the artist to escape and build a new universe— in the same way she might do so in the pages of a diary—but they also provide Claudia with the opportunity to reconnect with string instruments, since she herself played the violin for a decade.
Recorded between Toronto and Montreal, these romantic versions of W.O.W.Y., BITE THE APPLE, CALL ME BACK !, and THE MEANING TO US reflect how far Claudia has come in the last few years; still rooted in pop, but with a new sense of fulfillment that lets her step outside her comfort zone. The result is a series of delicate songs in which the singer's unique voice blends seamlessly with the quartet's notes to create a musical pairing that surprises as much as it charms.
