Biography

Nouvelle Vague is the name used by French producers Marc Collin and Olivier Libaux for their series of albums which cover pop songs in bossa nova/easy listening style. The pair gathered together French and Brazilian female vocalists to sing cover versions of 'classic' pop songs, including Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart" and "Teenage Kicks" by The Undertones.

Editorial Reviews

Limited two CD edition includes a bonus disc containing rare and unreleased tracks collated from across the bands eight year career and include rarely heard covers of U2's 'Pride' and Dexys Midnight Runners 'Come On Eileen' to name but two + duet's with Chris Bailey (The Saints) and Sammy Birnbach (Minimal Compact). 2010 collection. Familiar to millions yet still relatively unknown, the bands cover versions of '80s Post Punk classics have been heard on literally 100's of TV ad's and program sound beds in the UK alone. Not to mention starring roles in many a Hollywood soundtrack spanning blockbusters like Angelina Jolie's A Mighty Heart to cult classics like Tarantino's Grindhouse. The bands debut album 'Nouvelle Vague' went silver (60,000) in the UK and the band have gone on to sell over 750,000 units worldwide all from word of mouth with very little advertising or marketing. Peacefrog.

This review is from: Best of Nouvelle Vague (Audio CD)
Their best lounge versions of some punk classics like Teenage Kicks, Fallin in Love & Guns of Brixton and also some 80's synthpop, showing that those two styles might not even be that far removed.
