Patrick Watson releases “Silencio“ music video filmed in a Montmartre painters studio

Patrick Watson – the singer/songwriter, film composer and pianist based in Montreal, Canada – has released the music video for his newest song “Silencio,” featuring rising French singer-songwriter November Ultra.  The song was inspired by an experience had by Watson – an Award-winning artist that has released several beloved albums of explorative cinematic pop over the past two decades – in which he couldn’t speak or sing for nearly three months. “Silencio” explores some of the impressions that came to him during this time: does he talk too much, the anxiety that comes with reliving a conversation, learning to be a better listener and the power of silence.

Patrick Watson is also performing with the FilmHarmonic Orchestra for five sold-out concerts at the Maison symphonique de Montréal in November.
