Amelia’s Magazine | One to Watch: La Garçonne presents debut single Super Hero

First musical discovery of 2012: La Garçonne, the new solo project from singer Ranya Dube. She created this very lovely video for first single Super Hero, and is in the process of putting together an EP before she starts playing live around London town. La Garçonne is named after a novel by Victor Margueritte which was adapted into a French film in the 1930s. ‘It starred Marie Bell and Edith Piaff and was very controversial at the time as it portrayed women in way which society had never been done before. But like me, it was very daring and free which is why I decided to go by this name!’


The single was released on New Year’s Day and you can follow her antics on her Tumblr blog and Facebook and get a free download of Super Hero over on bandcamp. Plus I’ve just persuaded her to join the world of Twitter. Ranya Dube is definitely One to Watch. Take a gander at this mesmerising wonder: the Cocteau Twins never sounded more now.
