Blonde

Cœur de pirate

Sixties yé-yé energy meets modern heartbreak. A sun-drenched evolution from piano ballads to retro-pop arrangements with a lingering melancholic edge.

It's like a 1960s French movie soundtrack but for your actual modern-day breakup.

A bright, sun-dappled facade of 60s pop energy covering a deeply felt, melancholic core of romantic disillusionment.

Moments Worth Waiting For

the punchy, sixties-inspired drum fill that kicks off the kiss-off anthem Adieu

the sudden transition from the sparse piano intro to the full band swell on Place de la République

the way her voice catches on the higher notes during the stripped-back vulnerability of Cap Diamant
