With a name that means "new wave" in French and "bossa nova" in Portuguese, Nouvelle Vague's moniker neatly sums up the group's concept: remaking new wave classics with a Brazilian pop twist. French producers Marc Collin and Olivier Libaux recruited young female vocalists unfamiliar with the songs by the Clash, Dead Kennedys, and XTC that appeared on 2004's Nouvelle Vague, adding to the freshness that made it an international success. Subsequent albums offered slightly different shadings on the project's concept, ranging from collaborations with the artists whose songs they covered on 2009's 3 to the inclusion of original songs on 2016's I Could Be Happy. Even after Libaux's 2021 death, Nouvelle Vague's dedication to playfully sultry and wistful reinterpretations of post-punk and new wave continued with 2024's Should I Stay or Should I Go.
Members of Nouvelle Vague include, or have included, Camille, Jenia Lubich, Marc Collin and more.
