My working knowledge of the yé-yé revival is pretty much non-existent if I'm honest - does such a scene even exist? Rightly or wrongly, Laure Briard has been lumped into it by some commentators. Her music sounds like quality indie-pop to me. Regardless of categories, her recent LP, 'Révélation', is a total delight from start to finish. Check out the whole thing here.

Oh, I must ask my lovely French tutor about this!
