Read All About It | Emilie Simon

French electro-pop singer Emilie Simon is releasing new album The Big Machine on 12 April.

After garnering substantial critical recognition in her native France (including earning three Victoires de la Musique, France’s Grammy equivalent), Simon relocated to Brooklyn in 2008 where she wrote and recorded forthcoming release The Big Machine.

The Big Machine is full of Emilie’s powerful and seductive voice, inventively playful arrangements, driving synths and rhythms, and prodigious melodies.

To tide you over until the release, you can have a sneak preview with single ‘Rainbow’ where is premieres on Pop Matters, or watch Simon’s re-working of the track as part of her Bedford Avenue Sessions below.
