About Me |
|
| I've hidden my name. To find it, decipher the anagram THE RODEO. A word that takes you to the South of the USA, where the music I adore and love singing was born. A word as an hommage to the pioneers of folk, blues and country music.
When I was a child, I discovered a treasure in my uncle's attic. Hidden among dusty vinyles and books was a slumbering guitar. It was born in the mythical 1970's and its precious wood was haunted by the spirit of those golden musical years. I didn't learn how to play it, the guitar tamed me. Stuck together it became a part of me.
I write and compose ballads like fairy tales for grown-ups, fables without a moral. Throughout my lyrics, you'll meet characters, go places and feel different kinds of atmospheres. A moody girl not as tough as she looks, a boy with a love so huge it can only be shared, a lost village that feels like heaven, an ark to survive your past and start all over again.
And so many other things too futile not to be important. Those little things that fill my life.
I am The Rodeo, pleased to meet you...
Past shows: The Rodeo opened for My brightest diamond, Nina Nastasia, Declan Debarra, Ilene Barnes, Phoebe Killdeer (Nouvelle Vague), Sharko, Logh and many French acts (Constance Verluca, Valérie Leulliot, Jeanne Cherhal). She has also performed at the SXSW Festival 2008 in Austin, Texas, and made a little tour within the New-York scene (Piano’s, Zebulon, Arlene’s Grocery…). ............................................................ ............................................................ ............ J'ai caché mon prénom. Derrière l'anagramme, il apparaît en filigrane. The Rodeo. Evocation de ce sud Etasunien qui a donné naissance aux musiques qui m'ont enchantée... Puis fait chanter. Hommage aux pionniers du rock, du folk, du blues, de la country. Enfant, j'ai découvert un trésor dans le grenier de mon oncle. Au milieu des livres poussiéreux et des vinyles de collection, sommeillait...une guitare. Née dans les années magiques, les mythiques 70's. Un bois précieux et habité. Je n'ai pas appris à jouer, c'est elle qui m'a apprivoisée. Collées l'une à l'autre, on ne s'est plus lâchées. J'écris et je compose. Des mélodies simples et intimistes. Des balades faussement naïves, des comptines pour adultes, des fables sans morale. Au fil de mes textes, vous croiserez des personnages, des lieux, des ambiances. Une jeune fille à la moue boudeuse, pas si dure qu'elle ne le clame. Un garçon à l'amour gigantesque, trop pesant pour ne pas être porté à deux. Un village perdu aux atours de paradis. Une arche pour survivre au passé et tout recommencer. Et tant d'autres petites choses, trop anodines pour ne pas être importantes. Ces petites choses qui font ma vie. Je suis The Rodeo. Enchantée de vous connaître... Concerts passés : The Rodeo a déjà fait les premières parties d’artistes internationaux tels que My brightest diamond, Nina Nastasia, Declan Debarra, Ilene Barnes, Phoebe Killdeer (Nouvelle Vague), Sharko, Logh et d’artistes français tels que Constance Verluca, Valérie Leulliot, Jeanne Cherhal. Elle a récemment joué au SXSW Festival 2008 à Austin, Texas et a fait une incursion dans quelques salles new-yorkaises (Piano’s, Zebulon, Arlene’s Grocery…) "I COULD" By GIVETOGOD CLIP "THE RODEO" envoyé par Toma Zino a TAKE AWAY SHOW: the rodeo in the far-west Ajouter à mon profil | Plus de Vidéos |
