• Mélanie Pain is best known as the lead singer of the French band Nouvelle Vague who seduced millions around the world with her breathy renditions of 80s pop. Now the talented chanteuse turns to a solo career with an impressive debut album ‘My Name’. In contrast to the laid-back ease of her Nouvelle Vague singing style, Mélanie’s solo album, of her own material, is more gutsy, risk-taking.

• Mixing electric guitars, heavy drums and brass against Mélanie’s intimate vocals, the album carries a compelling, unique sound drawn from listening to Nick Cave, Harry Nilsson, Leonard Cohen…

• My Name was produced by Nouvelle Vague’s Marc Collin, and Mélanie has performed it twice already at the Roundhouse and the Royal Albert Hall.
