Nouvelle Vague

Event information

After their sell-out show in Exeter in February, Nouvelle Vague return to Exeter to play the Lemongrove in December.

Nouvelle Vague is two well seasoned, multi-instrumentalists / producers, Marc Colins and Oliver Libaus, who have found the beauty and heart in the sounds from tracks of the early eighties that they loved and transformed them. From Joy Division to The Clash, Depeche Mode to XTC, their idea was to forget the initial punk or new wave background of each song, keep simple fundamental chords, work with young singers who never heard the original versions, and make the quality of the original songwriting happen in a completely different way.

The result is an intoxicating mix of bossa nova, jazz and sixties pop. Not to be missed!
