DOUBLE FRANCOISE + POPINCOURT – Tes Samedis
«The amazing Mauléon based duo Double Françoise, an alliance – it’s fitting to write it – of Maxence Jutel – musician, arranger and producer of the first rank – and his wife Elisabeth – a delicate émule of Françoise Hardy and Astrud Gilberto – combines his talent here with that of the eminent Popincourt – the perfectly
legitimate son of Paul Weller and Joe Jackson and responsible for a trio of high-flying albums in which nostalgia for what was and what will never be again always vies with the desire to fight back.
A marriage made in heaven, to put it simply – and it doesn’t matter that there are three of them.
Elastic bass and electric double bass conjure up an enchantment of Rhodes, Wurlitzer and Philicorda to support the perfect backing vocals and graceful, deliciously mischievous vocals evoking sweet memories of a rainy – but clearly exhilarating – Parisian Saturday.
It’s quite simple: the perfect pop song, if it exists at all, probably sounds like “Tes Samedis”.»
