Her: Live on Acoustic / Tv5Monde

A live set on Acoustic, the weekly music show on Tv5Monde by Her following the release of their debut album, a release that really has to be by anyone's measure a strong contender for the French album of the year.

Her are no strangers to this blog, formed by Simon Carpentier and Victor Solf , two members of Rennes act The Popopopops until they formed their own act in 2015.

They released two EPs, establishing them as one of France's most promising acts, but tragically Simon Carpentier died of cancer aged 27 last year.

Victor Solf continued the band in tribute, and released their self-titled debut in March this year. It's a soulful and uplifting work,  that very much fulfils the band's promise.

The show featured the songs Wanna be Her, Five Minutes, Shuggie, Blossom Roses, a cover of Elton John's Rocket Man as well as an interview with Victor Solf by Sébastien Folin.
