Regular readers will know that I'm rather partial to a bit of Nouvelle Vague - a French band who does some brilliant easy-listening/bossa nova covers of classic British & American 'New Wave' songs.

These include great renditions of The Guns of Brixton by The Clash and Too Drunk To F**k by The Dead Kennedy's.

Anyway, they have a new CD coming out soon and are previewing a couple of the tracks on their Myspace account (Don't Go and The Killing Moon).

They are also apparently playing the Jazz Cafe Picnic Festival on 13th August. Anyone up for joining me?
