This week’s Song of the Day picks were chosen by DJ Morgan, spotlighting artists she discovered at the 2023 Trans Musicales festival in Rennes, Brittany, France. Subscribe to our YouTube channel to catch exclusive performances from some of these artists, filmed at the Conservatoire de Rennes Auditorium just for KEXP. 


Recording under the name Flore Laurentienne, composer, orchestrator, and musician Mathieu David Gagnon captures rich, romantic instrumentals, inspired by the wilderness in his hometown of Montreal, Québec. In fact, his latest album — titled Volume II — was inspired by Canada’s St. Lawrence River, with the instrumentation designed to "illustrate and illuminate the river’s flow."

Check out today's Song of the Day below, and watch his December 2023 KEXP performance, filmed at the Conservatoire de Rennes Auditorium in Rennes, France, during Trans Musicales 2023.
