Souris

Certainly, a French all-girl band called Les Petites Souris is a must on this blog. Sure, 'souris' means mice, but hey, wait until you hear them sing. The brooding looking singer Pussy Cat featured once in the line-up, she went on to have a solo-career. Les Petites Souris made sixties-pop, or Ye-Ye, the French take on clean cut rock 'n roll and named after the French pronounciation of yeah-yeah. Very charming, innocent-sounding but with a fat sounding beat. You can just picture the blond girls dancing to it in their mini-jupes. Big Ye-Ye stars were France Gall, Sheila and Sylvie Vartan - you can read all about them on this site. Side note: I don't think the Ye-Ye site has been updated for quite some time now - most sites they link to (like She Said Ye-Ye) are dead. Even the Magic Records site, that used to re-release a lot of really nice, kind of obscure French sixties-pop, does not exist any more. Check here and here also.
I couldn't find more info on Les Petites Souris, about their line-up or if they made more than just one EP. Still, I love the somewhat obscured, little choir in this song, On Te Le Dit, Il T'Aime.
