About Yulesband

 
Portrait of Yulesband
"This has to be the most terrific discovery I’ve made in new band browsing recently and I find it very hard to believe they’ve not signed a record deal with anyone. YuLeS is comprised of brothers Bertrand and Guilliaume from France who admit to having been “brought up in a house full of vinyl records, books and music instruments”. The result is, strangely, Americana at its finest. Here stands a duo living in France who has more in common with Nashville than some of the Nashville artists I’ve heard.

What I get from listening to YuLeS is incredibly heartfelt, passionate songwriting that resembles many of their influences without being unoriginal. The songs are a fiery combination of The Shins, Ron Sexsmith, Simon & Garfunkel, Jon Brion, Jeff Buckley and Randy Newman. The arrangements include lots of acoustic guitars, xylophone, harpsichords, recorders (you know, like a flute?), guitar, drums, occasional Hammond B-3 and vocals. There’s only four tracks on their MySpace site, but if you love any of the artists I’ve mentioned in that one sentence it would be very hard not to like them. YuLeS is an artist not to be missed and deserving of immediate attention on this side of the ocean."

Deux frères élevés dans une maison pleine de vinyles, de livres et d’instruments de musique.Papa écoute Leonard Cohen religieusement et voue un culte à Paul McCartney pendant que Maman vibre au son de Simon & Garfunkel.La découverte de "God only knows" les bouleverse et règle définitivement la question du futur métier.S’ils choisissent la musique, c’est pour continuer à communiquer émotionnellement avec leurs parents en prolongeant l’enfance.Armés de leur hypersensibilité et de leurs différences, ces jeunes surdoués imaginent la rencontre parfaite entre "Bridge over troubled water" et "Famous blue raincoat" pour essayer de donner aux autres ce qu’ils ressentent en écoutant leurs pairs. Autour d’une guitare acoustique, d’un piano et d’un calepin Moleskine, Bertrand et Guillaume écrivent à quatre mains leurs "pop songs" nourries de folk et de rock, de mélancolie amoureuse, d’introspection et d’élégance. Indépendants et multi instrumentistes, ils passent beaucoup de temps dans leur home studio pour finaliser leurs chansons à la recherche de l’arrangement libérateur. Leurs joyaux achevés, la scène est l’étape selon laquelle ils libèrent l’énergie contenue tout au long de cette quête sonore.Esthètes complices pour qui l’honnêteté est une ligne de conduite, ils n’ont d’yeux que pour les songwriters, parce qu’ils ne vivent que pour les chansons.Traduire en musique ce que le cœur nous dicte, c’est vouloir mettre des mots sur l’impalpable, c’est ce que YuLeS cherche à faire.
