Most people are probably jealous of Feist. As a globe-trotting artist she's had the chance to play shows around the world, both as a solo-artist and with Broken Social Scene, not to mention the time she has spent living and recording in France. But as her third album highlights, now out on Arts & Crafts, all of this travel has come at a high price. The Reminder shows the lonely life of the internationally popular musician who tries, unsuccessfully, to juggle their love life and career.
When Feist returned to Toronto a couple of years ago she brought back a little bit of France to Toronto. This weekend another Torontonian comes home and brings back a little more of the Continent back to T.O.. Born in Toronto, Gonzales lived in Berlin and Paris like musical collaborators Feist and Peaches. Teaming up with Peaches, Gonz gained notoriety for his over-the-top live shows. In the studio he's part of the reason for Feist's breakout album "Let It Die", co-writing three songs. He's even worked with French pop legend Jane Birkin, producing and playing the instruments on her duets album.
