My Friends All Died In A Plane Crash
Cocoon
Cocoon is a male-female duo of Mark Daumail and Morgane Imbeaud,\nself described (and perhaps with tongues-in-cheek) as a folk-pop\nversion of The White Stripes.
\n
Their close harmonic, heartfelt and charming sound echoes the\nrefrains of singer-songwriters Nick Drake and Elliot Smith, with a\nnod to the ‘new folk’ melodies of Sufjan Stevens and Devendra\nBanhart.
\n
The duo’s penchant for deliciously black nursery rhymes set\nagainst a whimsical musical backdrop is evidenced in their penchant\nfor curious album titles – I Hate Birds and My Friends\nAll Died In A Plane Crash.
\n
Cocoon has truly emerged in France with gold album sales and\nfrequent airplay, disproving the once-held theory that the French\ndislike their pop sung in English.

This French duo release an album with thesaddest title this year. Mark Daumail andMorgane Imbeaud combine on this beautifulnew album, self-described as a folk-popversion of The White Stripes. A nod to thenew folk sound of Sufjan Stevens and DevendraBanhart, along with a penchant fordark nursery rhymes. Well worth checkingout.
