Region: Newfoundland and Labrador
Genre: Pop-Rock
The solo recording project of Marcus McLaughlin. Born on the Canadian island of Newfoundland, Bleu delivers subdued, melancholic rock songs sheeted in a blanket of of lo-fi production. The lyrics are thoughtful and inward while usually accompanied by guitars sparkling with reverb.
With a repertoire of annual releases dating back to 2014, Bleu continually demonstrates keen songwriting and a sense of productivity. With each release McLaughlin discusses wandering thoughts and ponders life’s larger questions while cleverly interweaving melodies draw the listener in.
