Francoiz Breut
Vif! is the new (ninth, if I counted correctly) album by Cherbourg’s Francoiz Breut. The first two tasters of the album were VERY good, and the album does not disappoint. FB never sounded so groovy, and early Stereolab seems to be of influence on her music. Which is nice. She sings about the power of nature, of reaching out and touching, the power of smelling. And dancing, I presume. This track really stands out:
Innit? FB certainly makes it her own, this isn’t copying.
Loving this! And yeah, the early Sterol thing rings true for me with the plucky basses and Farfisa sounds.
