DIVING WITH ANDY

At the crossroads of baroque pop and earthy folk, Diving With Andys second album Sugar Sugar, is in the tradition of the great Anglo-Saxon artists. The masterstroke of the French trio, made up of Juliette Paquereau, Rmy Galichet, and Julien Perraudeau, is to have created music as sophisticated and daring as this in English. With its title Sugar Sugar setting a sweet note, the new album focuses on Juliettes voice and the stories she tells: ten magnificent tracks of orchestrated pop and voluptuous folk. There are no guests or collaborators on this album. Diving With Andy chose to produce the disc themselves behind closed doors with the idea of creating a piece of meticulous, sophisticated, craftsmanship since Rmy and Julien play all the instruments, and Juliettes writing possesses all the magnetism of her voice. Sugar Sugar is an acid-drop pop ballad, both British and French, bewitching as an English daydream permeated with all the charm of Paris.
