Introducing L’Epee – a band comprised of Emmanuelle Seigner (Ultra Orange & Emmanuelle), Anton Newcombe (The Brian Jonestown Massacre) and Lionel + Marie Limiñana (The Limiñanas). The debut single ‘Dreams’ is out on Anton’s a recordings label on 17th May 2019 and is available on 180g black vinyl 12”. It is taken from the album ‘Diabolique’, which is out in June 2019.
The track has already been played by BBC 6Music’s Amy Lame and Huw Stephens, and Jarvis Cocker has been spinning it during DJ sets.
The collaboration came about last year, when husband and wife duo The Limiñanas recorded an album with Anton Newcombe. A track featured French musician, actress, model and muse Emmanuelle Seigner on guest vocals. When she came into the studio to record the group dynamic clicked and a natural collaboration ensued.
The album was recorded in Cabestany, France and at Anton’s Cobra Studio in Berlin. The collective have named themselves L’Epee, meaning sword in English, after it came to Anton in a dream. They will be touring later this year.
