49 Swimming Pools is a critically acclaimed French band with a twist: they love American rock and mostly perform in English! Indeed, Les Inrocks, one of France’s leading cultural commentators, calls their music “refined and ambitious, pop made in France but dreamed up in America.”
With Emmanuel Tellier (piano and vocal...s), Fabien Tessier (drums, accordion, keyboards, percussions, back vocals) and Etienne Dutin (guitars, bass, back vocals) proudly flaunting their Anglo-Saxon inspiration, their glorious collection of pop songs bring to mind John Lennon, Neil Young, and recent north-American artists like Arcade Fire, Andrew Bird, Wilco or Sufjan Stevens. As an extra treat, a phantasmagorical film will be projected on the band as it plays. According to Emmanuel Tellier, this cut-up of moving images and photography is “the visual trace of a dream I could have had.”
Their first album, Triumphs and Disasters, Rewards and Fairytales, was released in September 2009 in Europe on CD and worldwide in multiple digital formats. The Nouvel Observateur, France’s most widely
circulated weekly, called it “very convincing” and SFR Magazine talks of the “refined and captivating atmosphere” in a “little hallucinatory jewel, for all the whimsical who want to go on the other side of the mirror.”
