Where do we go after the death of our child? It’s a question that lands heavily as you listen to Bibi Club’s new song, “Washing Machine.” Following up to “Amaro,” their new song lives in a strange, luminous space where grief and brightness intertwine, reshaping loss into something that breathes, whirls, and sways rather than staying frozen in place. You can feel the motion in the way the guitars leap and the keys throb, giving the song a pulse that feels alive, almost fleetingly joyful, without ever brushing aside the sorrow underneath.
That sense of spinning isn’t accidental. As the band explains, “This song is a homage to Tobie, who loved washing machines, the way they rush in and spin in every direction. It’s also a reflection on our experience as parents and the visceral bonds that connect us to our children. […] It evokes the short passage on Earth of a child who left a vivid, powerful mark on everyone who loved him.” It quietly reminds us that movement itself can be restorative. Sometimes the body finds its way forward before the heart is ready to follow.
Bibi Club is the duo formed by Adèle Trottier-Rivard and Nicolas Basque, who imagine their project as a kind of living-room dance floor, a place where loved ones gather to share energy and emotion. Their upcoming album, Amaro, pushes that emotional exploration even further, diving into darker inner landscapes while holding tightly to resilience and renewal. Moving between the visible and the unseen, the songs keep circling back to love, nature, and community as essential anchors.
Building on the world Bibi Club has shaped over the years, the record shifts from intimate spaces toward a more charged, mental dance floor where grief and vulnerability come into sharper focus. Shaped by recent losses, Amaro carries an urgent desire to feel, to connect, and to keep moving forward. Ultimately, it becomes a simple but powerful mantra: “I want to love, I want to live.”
