If this blog's been a little heavy with the presence of major artists and big budget releases of late, it's always worth returning our focus to something perhaps a bit more bite sized.
Feu Rouge by Pépite is something quite lovely, and the video is equally charming. The band describe it as "Closing titles...for the beginning of a debut album." It's the kind of dreamy track that ticks all the right boxes for chilled French pop, effortlessly stylish but not taking itself too seriously.
There's something of a humorous wink towards the 1976 Claude Lelouch short film C'était un rendez-vous in the clip of course. Although there's perhaps a more relaxed feel to it.
Feu Rouge features vocals by Flora Fischbach, whose À ta merci was one of this blog's favourite releases in recent years.
Pépite's Les Bateaux EP was released in 2016, their Renaissance EP in 2017. We're certainly ready to hear more by them.
Pépite play La Cigale in Paris on October 9.
