Hugo Barriol's eponymous album is a soulful and introspective journey through the French singer-songwriter's musical sensibilities. The album is a blend of folk, pop, and rock, with Barriol's rich and emotive voice lending an air of authenticity to each track.
The album opens with "On the Road," a driving and upbeat track that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Barriol's lyrics are poetic and thoughtful, exploring themes of love, loss, and personal growth. "Million Years" is a standout track, with its soaring chorus and haunting melody.
Throughout the album, Barriol's guitar playing is understated yet powerful, providing a perfect backdrop for his vocals. The production is stripped down and organic, with each instrument and voice given space to breathe.
