French band Hey Hey My My (obviously named after Neil Young's anthem) was formed in Paris in 2005 around Julien Garnier and Julien Gaulier. Their first works were spotted in Les Inrockuptibles weekly magazine's contest for newcomers in 2003, and after a first EP (^Too much space), the band released a first self-titled LP in 2007, displaying their classical Pop and Folk-Rock influences in a genuinely soft, warm yet melancholic manner.
Hey Hey My My is a superbly instinctive blend of enthusiasm and melancholy. Above all, it's an explosion of energy and the deceptive lightness of simple folk, as if to give more space to the words, which go right to the heart… In all cases, their love of catchy ballads always has the same devastating effect. We leave Julien Garnier and Julien Gaulier with a smile on our lips and a tune in our heads. With the hope of savouring this tantalizing, irresistible folk pop once more and heading back to Merryland, the intimate and enchanting world of Hey Hey My My…
