Oh Canada: Call Me Poupée


Oh Canada-month on Filles Sourires kicks off with the Canadian Lovers: Call Me Poupée. A duo consisting of Ken and Poupée, the latter wears garters, stockings, panties, a bra and not much more on stage (oh, and sunglasses). They hail from Montreal, released one album and just like their counterparts The Lovers they refer to Serge & Jane, country and that good time rock 'n roll. They describe their music as electro-tex-mex-twang-garage with a beatbox, and that's spot on. See video here. Myspace here.
This month, it's just French-Canadian music on this blog. Guestposts and tips are more than welcome!
