Released last April via Bonsound, Musivision marks a turning point in the musician's career. The self-taught artist will finally present the songs that make up her second opus with its dream pop, art rock, cosmic funk and synthwave tones in Montreal, in a unique anniversary show, exactly one year after its release. Both "a collection of letters to a former secret lover" and "a soundtrack that echoes within the walls of a mysterious mansion", it is the entire universe of Musivision that will be presented on stage at the PHI Centre, while the arrangements, costumes and sets will be designed especially for the occasion.

Laurence-Anne is a self-taught singer and guitarist who was a teenager when she wrote her first songs. The young woman was inspired by Feist and at first was really drawn towards the minimalist indie folk sound. Once she arrived in Montreal, she started leaning towards a more rock sound. She traded her acoustic instrument for an electric one, and in 2017 landed herself in the Francouvertes finals. Two years later, her first album Première apparition was named on the long list of the prestigious Polaris Prize, and reached the top of CISM’s year-end best-of chart for French albums. The new darling of critics and college radios performed at all of Quebec’s big festivals (Noce, FME, Frimat, FEQ, Festif) and even tested the waters in France (MaMA, Aurores Montréal) before returning home to record Accident, an EP with a touch of punk, indie-pop and tropical vibes. A fertile and astonishing sonic exploration that led her to the road of Musivision, a second album with dream pop, art rock, cosmic funk and synthwave tints. Co-directed by Félix Petit (Bellflower, Les Louanges), the opus marks a turning point in Laurence-Anne's young career with its polished production and catchy groove.
