Michael Rault previews new album with Starsky & Hutch-inspired video

Montreal's Michael Rault's new self-titled album is out June 10th. Check out his "Neither Love Nor Money" clip and an interview.

Here's the scoop...
A remarkable re-imagination of '70s pop perfection, Michael Rault's new eponymous album began to take shape during a time of endings. Michael, on the cusp of turning 30 and freshly off the road promoting 2018's A New Day Tonight, had just ended a romantic relationship, and cut ties with his management and touring band. Returning home to Montreal, he hunkered down in his bedroom studio and began writing. From the drug-fueled, dance floor slow-stepper, "Neither Love Nor Money", to the introspective "Inside Your Heart", to the tongue-in-cheek playfulness of "Champagne", the body of work he created in this epoch of uncertainty is proof of just how crucial that time of endings really was. Michael delivers a lush, timeless collection of songs - continuing his increasingly profound exploration into the worlds of progressive pop, psych folk, yacht rock and beyond.
