Turquoise Colored French Tourists

Turquoise Colored French Tourists is an eclectic musical collective formed in Paris in 2018, known for their dreamy blend of synth-pop melodies, art rock experimentation, and avant-garde lyricism. The group comprises founding members Luc Durand, Camille Beaulieu, and Lars Hébert, each bringing a distinct artistic background to the project, ranging from visual arts to experimental theater. Their debut EP, "Vacances Chromatiques," released in 2019, quickly gained recognition for its vibrant production and whimsical storytelling, earning them spots in France’s independent festival circuit and radio showcases.

Driven by an ethos of playful reinvention, Turquoise Colored French Tourists weave together layers of analog synthesizers, jangly guitars, and poetic vocals, drawing inspiration from French New Wave cinema, urban landscapes, and the romantic allure of travel. Their live performances are immersive and unpredictable, featuring visual art installations and audience interaction, which have contributed to their growing reputation as one of the most innovative emerging acts in the French alternative scene. With their sophomore album, "Les Promenades Surréalistes," slated for release in 2024, the band continues to challenge genre boundaries and invite listeners on a colorful, transformative journey.
