General
Bye Bye is the result of an unlikely encounter in January
2006
of four people with completely different musical backgrounds. Left to
their own devices, they could have become, respectively, a
Kantele’s
conductor in Lapland, a producer of James Last Orchestra tributes, a
singer of lullabies in Iceland or a gypsy guitar hero in Tajikistan.
But instead, they got together. Philippe BEER-GABEL (vocals, guitar,
kantele), Jana KLEIN (vocals), Emmanuel QUIRIE (keyboards) and last but
not least, the space cadet Etienne GILLET (drums, bugle), established
their headquarters in Montreuil where they conceived their plans to
produce new music that would blend sources and blur the lines between
genres. With sharp guitar riffs that suggest Blonde Redhead, sparkling piano Rhodes and a dreamy drum style, General Bye Bye have sculpted floating melancholic music that compliments the interwoven vocals. If they seem more gentle on their debut album, on stage they become powerful team .
