Indie Singer-Songwriter from France
France-based musician and producer Barrie Lindsay, known simply as Barrie, has a passion for creating left-of-center pop music that reflects what The New York Times describes as “a kaleidoscopically vivid inner world.” When she was crafting her sophomore album, Barbara, it became apparent that the sixteen tracks should be split into two. The first, Barbara, is an emotionally-charged collection of 11 songs dealing with the loss of a parent, the love of a new partner, and finding one's own identity that would go on to be deemed “one of the most complete pop full-lengths of 2022” (Billboard) and “an album that truly sounds like no other” (Consequence). Barbara garnered praise from FADER, NPR, PAPER, and NYLON. The remaining five tracks are more light-hearted and off-the-cuff. An avid runner, Barrie called the new project 5K. It is an EP that links the supple dream pop of Barrie’s debut LP Happy To Be Here to the more emotionally-grounded and experimental sounds of Barbara.
