From France, the four members of KIM NOVAK have played
together since two years.
Haunted by diversified influences such as indie (from Interpol
to the Tindersticks, from Radiohead to the Talking Heads),
soul music and classic rock, KIM NOVAK not only sounds
energically rock but also untypically ethereal. Their music is
not driven by any one instrument and each song has it own
sound and style which produce a melodic, groovy and electric
setlist.
Through positive blog reviews like the New York's blog " Ear
Farm " and their opening night off show of the French Festival
" La Route du Rock " in St Malo last year, the band manage to
increase their notoriety and spread their to everyone's ears,
in France wich allowed them to reach the " Printemps de
Bourges " short listing in October 2005.
The following year, Kim Novak signed with Talitres records and
under the tutelage of the french producer Fran鏾is Chevallier
with the contribution of Markus Dravs (who had worked
previously with Brian Eno, Bj鰎k or more recently Arcade Fire)
recorded their debut album 'Luck & Accident' in december.
