Nouvelle Vague
Bossa Nova / Jazz / Sixties Pop

Presentation

France-based Nouvelle Vague revisit a number of our favorite tracks of the early eighties, from Joy Division, The Dead Kennedy’s, PiL, XTC, the Undertones and the Clash. Nouvelle Vague is a marriage of “new wave” and “bossa nova”. It uses the beauty and heart of the post-punk period, cleverly merging and arranging pieces with honey-voiced lyrics. Nouvelle Vague’s idea was to forget the initial punk or new wave background of each song, keep simple fundamental cords, work with young singers who never heard the original versions, and make the quality of original songwriting happen in a completely different way.
