DESIDERATA

A record about what brings us together, what pulls us apart, and what we keep wanting anyway.

DESIDERATA explores the contradictions of love, the distance between desire and reality, and the compromises people make with themselves and one another. Moving between French songwriting, melodic pop-rock and atmospheric compositions, Quentin Piepszownik creates a personal collection of songs about the beautiful imperfections of being human.
