Bienvenue a Nage-Libre French Vinyl Club! It’s like a book club, but without the reading. Join us and you’ll build a collection of music from emerging francophone artists one by one.
These are free events, but we ask that you support the artists however you can. Our favorite way is by buying the album on vinyl. It helps the musicians and it adds a beautiful piece to your collection. Vinyl and a turntable are not required: buying a CD or digital copy is helpful too!

What does it sound like to gaze into the cosmos and feel a sense of awe and belonging at the same time? Les Sœurs Boulay have captured the sound perfectly in their album, La mort des étoiles. In this special episode, we have a chance to listen to and discuss some of the themes of this album. This musical journey put us at the center of nature’s cycles, and you’ll want to spin through them with this disc again and again.
