Le Couleur

Le Couleur is a pop trio that plays synth pop with vintage disco accents including the familiar bass lines, funky guitars, and the all-important hi-hat action on the drums. That said, the band also enjoys taking an occasional left turn and inject some '80s pop-happy rock moves, sometimes even a quick interlude or some keyboard motif that even suggests some of the period's prog music must have found their way into the band's musical DNA. This was more prominent early on when they were somewhat on the fence wrt their disco aspirations. The band plays a commanding funk groove, while vocalist Laurence Giroux-Do, who sings in French, has a soft, effervescent touch that adds a lush layer to the music. Despite all the danciness, her lyrics may take a dark turn at times, as was the case with 2022's Concorde.
