A self-produced pop band from France that broke through in 2009 and kept making albums through the 2010s.
For their sound, start with "Rien Qu'une Fois", that's the hit that defined them. "Quand Je Crie À L'Aide" gives you a good sense of their later pop style.
They started without label support, producing and promoting their own music from the beginning. Their 2009 single "Rien Qu'une Fois" hit number one in France, proving their DIY approach could connect with a wide audience. Songs like "Quand Je Crie À L'Aide" and "Insomnie" show their knack for straightforward pop hooks that resonated in French charts.
Childhood friends Kevin Bonnet, Fabrice Vanvert, and Olivier Bordère formed the band in 2005. After their 2008 song "À l'horizontale" drew some criticism, they broke through the following year with "Rien Qu'une Fois." They released albums like "Phenom'N," "Carpe Diem," and "Saltimbanque" through the 2010s while playing festivals.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
