If you want to describe the French sound tinkerers around pianist Charles de Boisseguin and singer Flore Benguigui, you quickly end up with big words like elegance, classy, French chic or grandezza. L'Impératrice manage to evoke these associations with an ease which almost borders on impertinence.
Their last studio album "Tako Tsubo" from 2021 demonstrates that in the best possible way: How dazzling 80s pop mixed with French disco, funk and spacey sounds that had a class to it which should have appealed to all those who are still mourning the end of Daft Punk to this day.
Although L'Impératrice contributed to numerous festival line-ups throughout the year - for example a home show at Rock en Seine - they have also recorded new music. The gently grooving single "Heartquake" with singer-songwriter Cuco is already available to listen to. In addition, L'Impératrice will also release a new album next spring which they will introduce with two special events: On March 25th and 26th, they will be gracing Hole44 in Berlin delighting their fans with exclusive Residency Plays - performances in which art and music will naturally merge.
