{"key":"36766","name":"Nouvelle Vague","bio":"At least three different groups have performed under the name Nouvelle Vague:1) a project created by French musicians Marc Collin and Olivier Libaux and a number of female singers2) a Japanese pop-R&B band 3) a Berlin-based multimedia music project founded by actress Betty la Gachette and musician & video-editor Renault Schubert.1) Nouvelle Vague (France) is a project created by French musicians Marc Collin and Olivier Libaux and a number of female singers, including Camille, Alexandra Pavlou of Spring and Suburbia, M\u00e9lanie Pain, Marina C\u00e9leste & Phoebe Killdeer of Phoebe Killdeer and the Short Straws. The group's albums consist in bossa nova fashioned covers of (primarily) New Wave songs (hence the name \"Nouvelle Vague\"). The covers include songs by Dead Kennedys, The Smiths, Joy Division, Public Image Ltd., Depeche Mode and Bauhaus. Each singer only performed songs they were not previously familiar with, to ensure that each cover would have an individual interpretation.With a name that means \"new wave\" in English and \"nova onda\" in Portuguese (which is the meaning for \"bossa nova\", a new music \"fashion\"), Nouvelle Vague's moniker neatly sums up the group's concept: remaking classic new wave singles with a Brazilian pop twist. Libaux played with various French pop bands during the '90s and began working with Collin in 1998. For Nouvelle Vague, Collin and Libaux recruited half a dozen French and Brazilian vocalists who were unfamiliar with the original versions of songs like Joy Division's \"Love Will Tear Us Apart\" and XTC's \"Making Plans for Nigel\" to ensure that their renditions had their own identity. Nouvelle Vague was released in Europe in 2004 and received U.S. distribution in spring 2005, which coincided with tour dates in locales as far-flung as Shanghai, New York, Los Angeles, and Rio de Janeiro. Nouvelle Vague's second album, Bande \u00e0 Part, arrived in summer 2006. The following year, the team returned with Coming Home, a collection of songs from films given the Nouvelle Vague treatment. Nouvelle Vague presents New Wave, a collection of covers by new wave artists, also arrived in 2007.One of the singers involved in the project has released solo work as Camille.Official site \/ MySpace2) Nouvelle Vague (Japan) is a Japanese band whose pop-R&B sound is beautifully arranged and fronted by the soulful vocals of diva Ricca. Other members of the band include Koyama (keyboards) and Try (bass).2) Nouvelle Vague (Germany) was a Berlin-based multimedia music project founded by actress Betty la Gachette and musician & videoeditor Renault Schubert.A final decision to change the name was reached in 2004, after french project Nouvelle Vague becomes successful. The new name is: FILM2Official site","featuredImage":"https:\/\/assets.allamericanmusic.com\/images\/36766_h_0.jpg","feeRange":"please contact"}

{"key":"15033","name":"Koop","bio":"Koop is the Swedish electronic jazz duo of Magnus Zingmark and Oscar Simonsson from Uppsala, Sweden, formed in 1995. Though the music may sound as if it is played by a tight jazz group, it is actually sample-based. Thousands of small clips of drums, strings, horns, and choirs are taken from old records and puzzled together into new songs. This time consuming production process is one of the reasons Koop's albums are released 4-5 years apart. The group's 3 albums all feature guest vocalists. On their latest, \"Koop Islands\", the singers are Yukimi Nagano, Ane Brun, Hilde Louise Asbjornsen, Rob Gallagher and Mikael Sundin. Also contributing to the percussion, solos, and bass are Mattias St\u00e5hl, Magnus Lindgren, Karl Frid, Nils Berg, Martin H\u00f6per, Ola Bothz\u00e9n, Dan Berglund and Mats Lindfors.Live, Koop transforms into a 7-9 piece swing orchestra including 1-3 singers. The lineup varies from time to time.Koop prefers to label their music \"romantic swingtronica\".","featuredImage":"https:\/\/assets.allamericanmusic.com\/images\/15033_h_0.jpg","feeRange":"please contact"}
