IF THE KIDS are Parisian noise renegades Brice Montessuit, Mademoiselle Marine, Vinz and Aymeric and they have been sending Paris into disco-punk frenzy with their hip shattering live shows, a little over a year after first meeting at an uncharted crossroad. Marine a feisty actress unleashing penetrating melodies and Brice, the savvy music maker carving grooves out of the dark dance clubs of the Paris underground were joined by fellow cohorts from the club scene Vinz and Aymeric but there was one thing standing in the way of If The Kids and that was the English Language.
No longer wanted to be constrained by the French music industry and only writing in their native tongue they set about creating the melodies and attempting to overcome the language barrier but as if by some divine intervention, a mysterious English cyber svengali swooping in to save the day and provide the lyrics the band sought after. They do not know his identity but virtual introductions have been made and Brice now works together with ‘The Englishman’ using cyberspace as their rehearsal room.
