What's Garage Blonde?
Garage Blonde are Mathilde Blonde, vocals, guitar, keyboards, and Nicolas GB, bass, guitars, vocals, drum machine.
An intimate and strange road trip, a feverish and colorful pop, both minimalistic and enthralling. Garage Blonde are French, sing in French. Their songs flow on a poetic wave of electric overdrive.

Nicolas GB

Jean Palomba

The encounter
Nicolas, Mathilde and Jean meet in the end of 2015 during sessions of Croire au Jaguar, a radio creative workshop. They like to knead sound matter and words. Mathilde and Nicolas consider forming a duo. They search themselves and come to realize they need a base ground to root their wavy improvisations.
The spark
Nicolas and Mathilde ask Jean to lend his quivering and swarming writing. Jean agrees to provide words and images, and reworks the structure, shapes and flesh of his writing to adapt to the fluctuating soul of Garage Blonde.
