Music / IncomingAu Revoir Simone Says Hello to IndependenceThe Brooklyn trio got it alone with their second album Still Night, Still Light.ShareLink copied ✔️April 20, 2009MusicIncomingText Quentin Delafon Au Revoir Simone Says Hello to Independence Heather, Erika, and Annie, three leggy girls from Brooklyn, NY initially wanted to name their band triple keyboard action but instead went for the mysterious option Au Revoir Simone. They are now releasing their second album Still Night, Still Light under their own label Our Secret Record Company. With this album the girls prove that they are still sweet and romantic but their sound is much darker than it used to be on The Bird of Music, as if they had been hit by reality. They remain the most charming all-girl bands ever but they are now showing a slightly sombre side and it’s pretty intriguing.To sum it all up we had a crush on them at dawn, danced all day and fell in love at dusk.
