Rover: Some Needs

A track from the recent Rover album Let it Glow, featuring German actress/model Diane Kruger.

Some Needs features of Rover's second album, which was released in November last year. The track has something of a mid 70s David Bowie classiness to it.

It follows the song Call My Name as a single.

The album meanwhile has been critically acclaimed, and has been nominated for a Victoires de la Musique award for Best Rock Album, we should find out on Friday how it gets on.

Rover is touring across France at the moment, with dates going on until May, and plays a show at the Olympia in Paris on March 24.

Rover: Call my name (C à vous live)

A nice live appearance on French TV chat show C à vous by Rover, for the track Call my name.

The track comes from his Let it Glow album, his second, which was released on November 6. It follows his self-titled debut, which was released in 2012.

Timothée Régnier, as he's known to friends and family, grew up in New York to French parents, and spent time in Lebanon where he established himself as a musician. On his return to France he adopted the Rover name.

His work nods to the early to mid 70s stylings of Bryan Ferry and David Bowie, clever without being inaccessible, distilling some of the best ideas that have emerged over passing decades.

He's touring in France from January, and  plays at the Olympia in Paris on March 24.
