Over a decade-plus of output, the Montreal band Le Couleur has blended lounge,alternative, and disco into a bright, shimmering French pop sound. The group’s releases arealternatingly groove-filled and languid journeys through humanity’s impulses toward the thrillof movement and the crash of excess. The group—founding members Laurence Giroux-Do(vocals), Patrick Gosselin (bass), and Steeven Chouinard (drums), with live membersPhilippe Beaudin (percussion, synths), Jean-Cimon Tellier (guitar), and Louis-Joseph Cliche(synths, vocals)—has brought its dynamic, irresistibly danceable live experience tohundreds of shows outside Montreal, including opening sets for Giorgio Moroder and Polo &Pan.
