New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Girlie Action Media & Marketing) Today
Yelle is releasing not one but two new eye-popping videos, which together form a miniature film for their forthcoming album Safari
Disco Club (March 29th; V2/Cooperative
Music USA/Downtown Records). In the first half, which is fthe video for the album's title track, the trio hit the dance floor to create a real-life safari disco club. The second half, which is the clip for "Que Veux-Tu," finds GrandMarnier hopping behind a drum kit, Tepr manning the keys, and frontwoman
Julie Budet slipping into a sparkly red dress to keep the party going. In both clips
Yelle are joined by dance crew Fanny Pak, who were featured on the MTV's America's Best Dance Crew, and the whole thing was directed by Jeremie Sandon Like all things Yelle, the videos are a place where late night fun, fashion, and a sly sense of humor all come together. It's also a tantalizing taste of how fun the band's live show is. You can catch
Yelle on an extensive North American tour this Spring.
Yelle is fronted and named by Yelle, nee Julie Budet, a sparky gamine with a deceptively demure schoolgirl voice. Joined by producers Grand Marnier (Jean-Francois Perrier) and Tepr (Tanguy Destable). Since the release of their acclaimed debut album, Pop-Up, the band have kept busy. They covered Robyn's "Who's That Girl" as part of the iTunes international exchange, and she covered their track "A Cause Des Gar�ons" in return. They were also were asked by Katy Perry to remix her hit single "Hot n Cold" which has led to them supporting her UK tour in April. Yelle Release Two New Videos, Creating an Eye-Popping Mini-Film
