And what, you may ask, exactly is a Nouvelle Vague? It's "new wave," it's "bossa nova" ...it's "Nouvelle Vague." Too vague? Nouvelle Vague is the marriage of "new wave" and "bossa nova," two incredibly precient yet improbable musical bedfellows... But it's really not that simple. The key twist is the fearless music that is translated (so to speak) into Nouvelle Vague. Nouvelle Vague is two well seasoned, multi-instrumentalists / producers, Marc Colins and Oliver Libaus, who have found the beauty and heart in the sounds from this era and transformed them -- cleverly merging and arranging this radical music. Some of the songs are stripped back to acoustic arrangements with lithe shaker rhythms achieved by gathering a parade of heavenly chanteuses from all over the world (six French, one Brazilian and one New Yorker) as guest vocalists to sex up everyone form XTC and Modern English to The Clash and The Undertones.
