Laetitia Sadier

As vital to European culture as The Velvet Underground were to the USA, Stereolab ploughed a twenty year course cruising the Krautrock underground whilst successfully surfing the Britpop overground with a series of perfectly misplaced melodica. Following their self-imposed hiatus in 2009, French born lead Laetitia Sadier has positioned herself as the chanteuse of the Avant-garde, initially with new project/band Monade, followed by solo albums. In 2017 she launched The Laetitia Sadier Source Ensemble, featuring long-time collaborators Emmanuel Mario and Xavi Munoz, along with David Thayer, and Phil M FU. Their sound harks back to the style Stereolab in the 90s, while still pushing forwards with new musical ideas.
