Nouvelle Vague
Sultry, bossa nova reimaginings of post-punk and new wave classics. Elegant acoustic arrangements that turn angst into a sophisticated, sun-drenched exhale.

Formed in Paris in 2003, the French band Nouvelle Vague is led by musicians Marc Collin and the late Olivier Libaux. The group is known for reinterpreting new wave tracks through bossa nova and lounge arrangements. Signed to Play It Again Sam, the collective utilizes a rotating cast of female vocalists, including artists like Camille and Mélanie Pain. Despite Libaux's passing in 2021, the project remains active in touring.
