Yelle = French Electro best described as Stereolab meets M.I.A. (I am addicted.)

Heard at Villains Vault in the Haight today. Got hooked after just a couple songs. I remember hearing Je Veux Te Voir on the Cannes episode of Entourage from this season, and had been meaning to look that artist up.

Really catchy, electro, driving beat and I do love the français.

Zomg I love Yelle so much. She had a concert on Halloween in SF by 5th and Market, and it was, without exaggeration, the best concert I've ever been to. Ever ever.

I forgot my phone so my husband took photos instead:

Totally out of my music realm, but I really dig it! Even the French.
