Nouvelle Vague - Guns of Brixton

New Wave, New Wave Bossa Nova: three words in their respective languages ​​mean exactly the same thing.Three passions that Marc Collin and Olivier Libaux endeavor since 2004, married together in the collective Nouvelle Vague, or, swaying elegance of Bossa Nova, writing melancholy of the New Wave and distanced view movies New Wave.

The group’s approach is as follows: transpose standard directory punk / new wave and (re) discover obscure titles more or less 80 years, offering an original rereading rooted in modernity.

The cover art is tricky … but 3 albums (“New Wave” – 2004, “Bande à Part” – 2006, “3” – 2009), reinterpretations of Nouvelle Vague toured the world.
700,000 albums sold hundreds of complete concerts around the globe, the respect of many original artists (Martin Gore, Terry Hall, Ian McCulloch … also on the album “3”).

The female performers contribute significantly to the success of Nouvelle Vague, the originality of Camille, the elegance of Mélanie Pain, the sensuality of Phoebe Killdeer, madness scenic Nadeah Miranda had flipped the international public. A chic aesthetic extended by Helena Noguerra or Mareva Galanter, who accompanied the band on stage today.

If the three previous games clung directory new wave and post punk Anglo-Saxon “Colors of Paris’ 4th album but the first group on the Barclay label, revisits this” New Wave “that swept the French late 70 and extended over most of the next decade.
This spontaneous generation – the Current magazine named “Young people modern”-extended the Anglo-Saxon heritage in France. More than current musical set (new wave, post punk, pop, cold wave, Novo …), this scene – which was the heyday of the Palace – is illustrated by a line of thought rejecting the values ​​and sixty-eighters aesthetics, which in taming synths and drum machines, overthrew the 80s.

Kas Product / Marc Seberg or Lio / Indochina? Black and white or colorful? Rage punk dandy aesthetic? Or underground hit singles?
many differences but a movement with complex ramifications and incestuous.

To celebrate the new wave “made in France” , it is no longer only the New Wave singers are invited. Each title is revisited by an artist of the contemporary French scene, which grew out of the ashes of this movement and assumes inheritance.
