Videoclip of "Don't Shoot The Rabbit", excerpt from Girouette, the 1st coming album of General Bye Bye

General Bye Bye is the result of an unlikely encounter in January 2008 of four people with completely different musical backgrounds. Left to their own devices they could have become, respectively, a Kanteles conductor in Lapland, a producer of James Last Orchestra tributes, a singer of lullabies in Iceland or a gypsy guitar hero in Tajikistan. But instead, they got together.

Philippe BEER-GABEL (vocals, guitar, kantele), Jana KLEIN (vocals), Emmanuel QUIRIE (keyboards) and last but not least, the space cadet Etienne GILLET (drums, bugle), established their headquarters in Montreuil where they conceived their plans to produce new music that would blend sources and blur the lines between genres.

With sharp guitar riffs that suggest Blonde Redhead, sparkling piano Rhodes and a dreamy drum style, General Bye Bye have sculpted floating melancholic music that compliments the interwoven vocals. If they seem more gentle on their debut album, on stage they are transformed. Live, the Tana Quartet is substituted with psychedelic keyboards that hook the listener.

The band, armed with their first full-length album and a powerful live set, is on the march

Se escucha muy similar a Blonde Redhead... por no decir que es una copia.

Sorry. We didn't make it on purpose. Please listen to the album and you'll see that we're not into imitating them.

J'adore le début quand la mère part

La tête que Lila fait!

I love it! The drums were reminiscent of Yes/Bill Bruford.

Ok, fue una primera impresión... Se escucha muy bien. Tienen razón, esta impresión puede cambiar. Repito que suena bien, me gusta; sin embargo, recuerdo a Blonde redhead. The National ha sido comparado con Interpol, han dicho que les han copiado... Y me parece un error. De cualquier manera, voy a tratar de conseguir el disco y escucharlo con atención. Si no lo consigo me conformaré con sus canciones de myspace... les daré mi opinión pronto. Y una disculpa si me equivoqué.
