Adieu Gary Cooper

Bleu Bizarre (+cd)

Inspired by Romain Gary's 1964 novel 'The Ski Bum', this Genevan quartet plays country-blues with a psych-touch. All lyrics are French and uncompromising. Folk guitars vs distorted guitars, hovering lap steel, backing vocals celebrating country music heros or messy Black Lips riffs. It is a dreamy record, unique, fresh and new, between lullabies and dance floor killers. They invoke the ghosts of the french past as Serge Gainsbourg or Alain Bashung but also some immortal giant as The Velvet Undergroud (as usual) or Harry Belafonte ! It's groovy. It's mellow! It is for the first time on LP, with a beautiful print screen cover, deep in the blue. The perfect record for the beginning of the year, promising rising waters!
