Featuring the haunting voices of Piers Faccini and Frànçois Atlas, this album journeys through a 'mountain state' — from the highs of elevation and exaltation to the depths of introspection and dread. It’s a heartfelt tribute to mountaineering icons and the rugged peaks that have moved him as a lifelong climber and alpinist. Between ambient music and contemplative jazz, the ten tracks of “Get High” invite us on an ecstatic, shimmering ascent from which you never quite come back down.

A key member of the bands Limousine and Asynchrone, and a producer and arranger for others (Jeanne Added, Piers Faccini…), Frédéric Soulard reveals with his debut album a more intimate side of his musical palette: a dreamlike, introspective journey inspired by high altitude mountaineering.
