Music Show: Kids Return pays homage to French Touch and Britpop with ‘1997’

In this edition of our arts24 music show, Jennifer Ben Brahim chats with Adrien Rozé and Clément Savoye from French pop rock band Kids Return. Despite being born and raised in Paris, they could be mistaken for being from the UK or the US, their musical references being the likes of Oasis and The Strokes. They’ve just dropped their second album “1997”, a nod to their year of birth but also two musical movements that started that year – French Touch and Britpop. Kids Return have just finished a North American tour, performing in locations such as the Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado. This month, they performed at the legendary Olympia venue in Paris, following in the footsteps of some of their musical idols such as The Beatles.
