The tour celebrates 21 years since the release of their seminal first album, alongside the launch of their new exciting LP featuring some very special guests, to coincide with their 16 live dates featuring two shows at London’s iconic venue Koko.
The French new wave band have captivated audiences worldwide for over two decades, initially conceived as a one-off tribute to the post-punk genre, reimagined through the lens of bossa nova. Nouvelle Vague's debut album unexpectedly soared to global acclaim, establishing the group as a musical phenomenon.
Nouvelle Vague has cultivated an ever-evolving sound by hosting a rotating cast of talented female guest vocalists, including the likes of Camille, Elodie Frege, Melanie Pain, Phoebe Kildeer along with American actress, singer and musician Juliette Lewis and actress, model and singer Vanessa Paradis, who have seamlessly made these vintage tunes their own through their emotive interpretations and personal flair.
Beyond their work with Nouvelle Vague, these vocalists have gone on to pursue a variety of other creative projects and collaborations. Yet they frequently return to guest with the collective, drawn back by the invigorating experience of reinterpreting timeless songs alongside such a talented group of musicians.
Through this diverse ensemble, Nouvelle Vague has captivated a sound that pays homage to the past while simultaneously pushing it into the present with their genre-blending covers. The band's ability to breathe new life into classic material, combined with the versatility and creativity of its featured vocalists, has solidified Nouvelle Vague's reputation as a truly unique and endlessly compelling musical force.
