Charlotte Adigéry and Bolis Pupul have shared another new track from their forthcoming joint album – listen to ‘Ceci n’est pas un cliché’ (‘This is not a cliché’) below.The pair’s debut album as a duo, ‘Topical Dancer’, will be released on March 4, 2022 via Deewee – the label owned by Soulwax, who co-wrote and co-produced the album.Speaking of the new track, the duo said: “This song is an accumulation of all the cliché lyrics so often used in pop music. It came about when we were touring and heard a song on the radio opening with ‘I was walking down the street’ which made us strongly cringe.
But the thing is, cringing is a shared passion of Bolis and I. So we passionately made a song out of it.”Of the song’s accompanying video, which you can see below, they add: “Even more passionately we performed ourselves into a video about all the clichés we see in the magic world of musical genres.
The musician in all its glory, capturing momentum and delivering a top notch performance, gazing into the light that’s called inspiration. And so for once and for all, please leave Magritte alone…!”The pair have also announced details of a debut US tour, set to take place in May and follow an existing run of UK and European dates.See the pair’s full touring schedule below.APRIL 20224 – Bristol, Rough Trade5 – Brighton, Green Door Store6 – Manchester, YES7 – London, XOYO10 – Glasgow, Broadcast11 – Edinburgh, Sneaky Pete’s17 – Amsterdam, Melkweg19 – Berlin, Berghain Kantine20 – Brussels, Ancienne Belgique25 – Paris, TrabendoMAY 202210 – New York, Bowery Ballroom12 – Montreal, Bar Le Ritz PDB13 – Toronto, Velvet Underground14 – Chicago, Empty Bottle17 – Los Angeles, Moroccan Lounge18 – San Francisco, Popscene at Rickshaw Stop20 – Seattle,
