Biography
DANCE CONTEST WINNER (Le Man Avec Les Lunettes & Rough Bunnies) came out from a pic that I (Alessandro) found surfing on Internet. Actually, I've lost it. A new name for a new collaboration. I guess we've decided to use this cause Frida is a really good dancer, Alessandro is not.
ABOUT LE MAN AVEC LES LUNETTES
Read full biography ↓
They have released a debut composing by songs that are bundled up in the pop spirit with influence of Belle & Sebastian, Blur, Beatles, Beach Boys. The band hails from northern Italy and plays a mellow, laidback, melancholy, but at the same time somewhat ironic, music, mixing twee pop, weird electronic backgound noises with some kind of warm jazzy feel. The first Italian band to ever be picked to perform at Sweden's Emmaboda festival, Le Man Avec Les Lunettes 've played in Italy, Denmark, France, Germany, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, Spain and Uk more than 120 shows.

SHORT INTERVIEW:
1. Tell us the story about the song (all the details, please!)
Alessandro from LMALL and Frida recorded some songs when Frida was in italy, in september 2009 for the "bye bye myhoney" party. Then all the LMALL gave their own contribution to the song (cello, voices, drum, etc ...). LMALL and Rough Bunnies release a split double mini-cdr few years ago and this compilation gave us the possibility to work together again.
2: Why did you choose to work together, and how did you meet?
Well, when Knut wrote me I was organizing Frida's trip to Italy. So, she was the first in my list. She said "ok. let's do it!". Me and Fabio met Frida in Emmaboda (Sweden), We played at this amazing festival in 2005. Then we played together in Italy for 5 days-tour and then again in Copenaghen. She (and Anna of course) are really good people.
3: Do you have plans to do more music together?
Frida is a awesome songwriter, so we hope to play/record again with her
