Roadmap To Redemption on CD

With Roadmap to Redemption, Mobile displays the same undeniable chemistry and deft songwriting chops that propelled them to prominence in their original career from 2005-2012. This time out, however, the original four-piece band (front-man Mat Joly, guitarists Christian Brais and Frank Williamson, and drummer Pierre-Marc Hamelin) have an entirely new perspective on their partnership and the music industry. The result is a record that captures the urgency of their earlier material but finds Mobile growing into a more focused style; a seamless blend of modern pop and the signature sound they developed over countless hours of practice and performance. Produced by Gauthier Marinoff, Roadmap To Redemption is equally as compelling and vital as Mobile's early work. But getting back together wasn't about reliving their past or chasing a hit; it was about chasing something even more intangible. The band parted ways professionally after their sophomore release, "Tales from the City" but stayed in touch, healed the rifts the breakup caused and hit the stage again at a one-off show in Montreal in 2016 to celebrate the 10th anniversary of their debut. "When we did our first rehearsal, I started singing, and it felt natural, better than before for some reason. It's like we hadn't missed a beat."
