This is a just a little sample, less than 30 minutes long, of the music of Françoise Hardy. If you like it, then I recommend buying The Vogue Years, which is a great compilation.

Malajube - Sangsues
from La Caverne, 2011
I went to see them play live last night at the Bowery Ballroom…and it’s all it took to definitely sink this album in.
And this song. This song is in heavy rotation here, there is just something that grabs me in there..
And I will say that the show didn’t disappoint (though I think for them the crowd did- it wasn’t packed…sure is a change from Montreal for them…) they have an amazing energy on scene and the sound was even better, edgier than on the album. And I was THIS close. It was an amazing performance, I must say. My Montreal people know how to burn up a stage…
