Presenting the first of two bands, Anoraak and Team Ghost, featuring on the Oui Love tour in May - for more details visit ouilove.com and [ouilove.believeband.com] (http://www.ouilove.believeband.com).
The two bands have remixed each other exclusively for this tour - listen below...
Anoraak is the current guise of Frederic Riviere: producer, singer, multi-instrumentalist and another major player in the French electro pop scene. Having started his musical career in a series of indie-rock bands that never felt quite right, Frederic relocated to Nantes in Western France where his present day sound began to take shape.
The first Anoraak EP Nightdrive With You (2008) was inspired by a mixture of influences ranging from twisted disco to 80s synth. Debut album Wherever the Sun Sets (2010) saw Anoraak continue to develop his distinctive sound, with nods to Italo-disco, Motown and funk, plus richly-layered instrumental loops and the odd touch of nostalgic pop. Also heavily influenced by Southern Californian rock outfits such as Weezer, Anoraak’s electronic take on all of these musings results is a sound that makes you want to dance, as well as bliss out.
Frederic has brought together a group of musician friends to form a band for Anoraak’s live incarnation and says: “We can't wait to start this tour around the UK! It's a great occasion to present the live show to the British audience; we haven’t done much there so far, though we know we have a strong base of followers in the country. Playing live always provides stunning memories.”
