Nouvelle Vague
Nouvelle Vague (France) is a project created by French musicians Marc Collin and Olivier Libaux.
20 years after the release of its first eponymous album, which has since become
a classic, the French group Nouvelle Vague is back!
More than covers, Nouvelle Vague has been reinventing post-punk classics since
the early 2000s, retaining their melancholy while infusing them with an air of
bossa nova, revealing along the way singers who have become iconic such as
Camille, Phoebe Killdeer, Melanie Pain or Elodie Frege.
The group is released their new album, “Should I Stay Or Should I Go?” on February 16, 2024. And to go along with its 20th anniversary, Nouvelle Vague is on a massive
world tour in 2024 and 2025.
