BB Brunes

French pop-punk trio BB Brunes features members who have known each other since they were kids. In 2005, a demo recording caught the ears of a college friend of the band who passed it along to his father, a former member of the rockabilly revivalist trio Les Costars, who had just created his own label. Excited by BB Brunes' youthful exuberance and punk attitude, Claud Sitruk signed the band. A series of high-profile gigs subsequently led to the band recording its debut album, Blonde Comme Moi, which was released on Warner in 2007. ~ Matt Collar
