Nouvelle Vague

Nouvelle Vague (France) is a project created by French musicians Marc Collin and Olivier Libaux and a number of female singers. The group's albums consist in brazilian fashioned covers of (primarily) new wave songs (hence the name "Nouvelle Vague"). The covers include songs by Dead Kennedys, The Smiths, Joy Division, Public Image Ltd., Depeche Mode and Bauhaus. Each singer only performed songs they were not previously familiar with, to ensure that each cover would have an individual interpretation.
