French Indie Pop
French indie pop is independent-minded pop from France, often blending synthesizers, disco grooves and breezy melodies.
It is a regional grouping rather than one sound. Phoenix, from Versailles, play polished indie pop and synth-pop, the Paris band L'Impératrice mix pop with nu-disco on an independent label, and La Femme draw on new wave, surf and psychedelic rock. Earlier French pop, from chanson to 1960s yé-yé, sits in the background of much of it.
Artists it is known for: Phoenix, La Femme, L'Impératrice.
