[edit] Short biography
The French band Sibyl Vane is based in Pau since 2003 and its name is based on the suicidal fiancée of Dorian Gray in the Oscar Wilde masterpiece... A pretty coherent choice, knowing the band shares with the Irish writer a certain taste for decadence and representation. On stage, dramatic performance, images and movies help turning their show in real artistic performances. The visual aspect is very develloped in Sibyl Vane's music, which is rather oppressing most of time..
Their first recording attempt, "Pret-a-porter" was released in late 2002 as a demo CD-r, a few months before its official release as an e.p.
In October 2005, the band finally released its debut album "Paradoxes" on Jerkov label.
In 2006 the band recorded a David Bowie's "I'm Deranged" cover for the Chicago based label FTC Records. The compilation entitled "2. Contamination" includes bands such as Arcade Fire, The Dresden Dolls, David J. (Bauhaus)...
The band is now writing new songs for their forthcoming album, due to be released in late 2007.
Sibyl Vane played with Dominique A., Ulan Bator, Tahiti 80, Enfance Rouge, Calc, etc...
