Emerging multi-instrumentalist Pierre Lecarpentier has officially released his latest single, “Waves,” a track that further solidifies his presence in the modern Psychedelic and Progressive Folk Rock landscape.

Released on July 21, 2026, “Waves” captures a unique sonic intersection that Lecarpentier describes as “Psychedelic Rock, Folk on steroids, and pop from outer space.” His music draws deep inspiration from the Experimental spirit of the 1960s and 70s, while seamlessly integrating the ethereal textures of shoegaze and the complexity of Progressive Rock.
This DIY approach — born from a desire to handle all aspects of composition and instrumentation personally — has resulted in a prolific output. “Waves” follows a series of 2026 releases, including “Live acoustic jams,” “Stay cool,” and the full-length “The lost art of letting the light in,” showcasing an artist in a state of constant creative evolution.
While Lecarpentier handles the entire instrumental arrangement, he focuses his efforts on the “noise” and atmosphere, often leaving the vocal duties aside to let the music speak for itself. The result is a lush, immersive experience recommended for fans of hypnotic motoriks and hallucinogenic Rock.
