Addiction. This is the first feeling one gets when one hears Lescop’s words. Obsession. The second. 

Lescop has been developing his project in London with a new label (Pop Noire Records) handled by Jehnny Beth and John from Savages, reinventing the French New Wave somewhere in between Etienne Daho, Taxi Girl, Joy Division and some might say The XX or The Cure. Dramatic, danceable, and full of tension, Lescop is a pure new wave thrill. Even before his self-titled debut in 2012, Hedi Slimane discovered Lescop and through his photos helped him to become a new French icon, playing in every major event in Europe! Four years later, Lescop strikes again with a brand new album, ECHO. At the same time raw, intimate and full of strong characters which could come out of a Dostojewski drama it feels a bit like a literary tour de force. This album (2016) is highly acclaimed in France and gives birth to a new live show merging Lescop ´s electronic sensibilities with a Jim Morrisonesque rock aesthetic.
