About Stereolab
Stereolab, the iconic Anglo-French avant-pop band, has been captivating audiences since their formation in London in 1990. Led by the dynamic duo of Tim Gane and Lætitia Sadier, Stereolab's sound is a mesmerizing blend of krautrock and 1960s French pop, characterized by repetitive motorik beats, vintage electronic keyboards, and Sadier's enchanting vocals in both English and French. Their lyrics delve into political and philosophical themes, drawing inspiration from Surrealist and Situationist art movements. On stage, Stereolab transforms their sound into a more feedback-driven and guitar-oriented experience. Over the years, they have expanded their musical palette to include influences from funk, jazz, and Brazilian music, making each performance a unique and immersive journey. With a rich discography and a dedicated following, Stereolab continues to push the boundaries of avant-pop, offering a live experience that is as intellectually stimulating as it is sonically engaging.
