Latest single from their album Concorde – Montrealers Le Couleur released here the music video Oiseaux Sauvages, directed by their fellow videographer Ariel Poupart, who describes his work here :
“Inspired by a personal story, the song Oiseaux Sauvages deals with mental illness, more precisely a friend of the band’s schizophrenia which started during teenagehood. The intention of the music video is to poetically treat this vision of a constantly changing reality. This video is similar to the last Concorde’s music video’s universe (also directed by Ariel Poupart and the same starring actor Dominick Rustam) but this time in a setting that is between the rural and the urban. An empty and silent world where two characters meet. An enigmatic music video that does not fail to seize us with its beauty and melancholy.”
– Ariel Poupart

The Montreal trio Le Couleur, created by Laurence Giroux-Do (vocals), Patrick Gosselin (bass), and Steeven Chouinard (drums), delivers rich and irresistibly danceable performances.
Le Couleur polished their sound until it shined as bright as the late Studio 54’s spotlights with EPs Voyage Love (2013) and Dolce Désir (2015), and then P.O.P. (2016), their critically acclaimed debut album. Thanks to precious advice from Giorgio Moroder, with whom the band had the opportunity of sharing the stage, Le Couleur recorded their new album adopting a completely different approach.
Concorde takes its name from the legendary Franco-British airplane from 1965, nicknamed the “beautiful white bird” for its sleek and modern design. This avant-garde project that ended in tragedy has always held a certain fascination for Laurence Giroux-Do; a deadly “crash” that inspired in her a sense of macabre sensuality.
In the album’s music, we find vintage influences, recalling the faded charm of 70s erotica, warm tones also rooted in psychedelia, disco, yéyé, and French chanson.
