Editor's review

The Parisian indie duo brings Lekman levels of twee joy to bear on galloping, Mexicali-touched ditties. So what does it mean to fall between, say, Belle & Sebastian and '50s hero Richie Valens? We're not quite sure, but we think it means these are true pop purists.

Biography

Legendary anti-folk band formed in 1999, Herman Dune are a French duo comprised of David-Ivar Herman Dune and Neman Herman Dune. Though based in Paris, their musical family tree extends to New York City, Sweden, Berlin and the UK. They've recorded a dozen Peel Sessions on the BBC and have already shared the stage with Arcade Fire, Kimya Dawson, Of Montreal, Jeffrey Lewis and The Kooks. The "I Wish That I Could See You Soon" EP is Herman Dune¹s first Everloving release. An infectious burst of beautiful pop sounds, the music owes as much to the wry wit of Jonathan Richman as it does to Chuck Berry's classic guitar clang. With bourbon horns n' brass and girl-group vocals courtesy of The Woo-Woo's (Lisa Li Lund and the New York Babyskins), the songs are warm, sunny and borderline Spector-esque. Rolling Stone named "I Wish That I Could See You Soon" as one of the best 100 songs of 2007. Their 2nd ep for Everloving is “1-2-3 Apple Tree.” You may have seen the video, featuring the raisin stealing Kramer from Seinfeld’s breakthrough season 4’s “The Pilot” episode. Everloving will release a new full length album September 08.
