Marie Davidson is back with a new album, a new band, and a bold new sound: Renegade Breakdown on Ninja Tune. Arriving under the banner of Marie Davidson and L'Oeil nu, a trio formed of three old-time friends and long-term collaborators with shared roots in Montreal's DIY scene: Marie, Pierre Guerineau and Asaàö¬¥l R. Robitaille (the former two are also husband and wife, and partners in the group Essaie pas).
Drawn to the idea of the eternal return, they deliver a forward-facing, innovative pop record that builds on the classic tenets of Marie's music to create something that strikes out towards a broader audience. With dark humour and interpolated musical influences - from Fleetwood Mac to Kraftwerk, and jazz classics such as Billie Holiday and Chet Baker - they spin each of its entries in wildly imaginative directions.
