Hailing from Montreal, Quebec, Virginie B is a singer-songwriter and young producer who exists in a landscape created by multitudes of tones and textures.

In the bitter cold of January 2022, Virginie B’s new album INSULA was released. With her first LP, this prolific artist has taken a special place in the Montreal music scene, offering a masterful blend of genres; dream-pop, nu-disco, and neo-soul combined with an exploration of profound psychological states of mind. On stage, she captures lights and minds. Accompanied by seasoned performers, Virginie B’s INSULA will transport you to another plane.

Since then, the project has been showcased in multiple settings: Francofolies de Montréal 2022, Coup Coeur Francophone 2019-2021, Phoque OFF 2019-2022, Festival Santa Teresa 2022, Official selections for M for Montreal 2022. INSULA was nominated at the GAMIQ under POP album of the year.

Recalling Hiatus Kayote, early Diane Tell, Moses Sumney, or Minnie Riperton, this new direction is a dreamy voyage through the shadows of a neo-soul-textured world from another time and place.
