Party: RAYMONDE HOWARD

Party: RAYMONDE HOWARD

This Wednesday (20th of August) in SURFbar we present to You a fabulous Raymonde Howard.

"Raymonde Howard is the artistic alter ego, the solo project, the ideal and fantastical costume of Lætitia Fournier.
Easy to see through this Saint-Etienne singer/guitarist and the many bands she took part in since the middle of the 90s (Goofball, Kiss Kiss Martine, La Seconda Volta) the portrait of the frenetic rock scene of her region. A ‘riot girl’ as one could say. Lætitia's roots are clearly punk, noise and chicks with guitars. It took a whole year in England and a 4-track recorder for Lætitia to reveal Raymonde Howard, her solo identity, obviously more intimate, obviously more in the nude than behind a walls of amps.
Four years after the acclaimed album" For all the bruises, black eyes and peas" including two live sessions on national and international radios ( France Inter, Fraénce Culture, CBC Canada...), glowing reviews and gigs round Europe and Canada, her new album is the orginal soundrack of the Film "The bed". from the script, she wrote eight songs built on someone else's dreams and oneiric wanderings. Her music is still rough, untamed, a bit rock, a bit folk with catchy tunes."
