Benoit Pioulard readies new LP, playing shows (dates, stream)

Benoit Pioulard

Thomas Meluch will release his fourth album under his musical alias Benoît Pioulard, Hymnal, on March 4 via Kranky. The record was made in England and Europe while on a year abroad, taking inspiration from the continent’s many ornate cathedrals. Benoît just released the video for album track “Margin” and you can watch that below.

You may remember that Benoît just released a split with Foxes in Fiction, with whom he’ll share a few dates on his upcoming March tour, though not at either of FiF’s NYC shows this month. He will, however, play The Studio @ Webster Hall on March 26 with Noveller and tickets are on sale now. All tour dates are listed below.
