Album Notes & Community Reviews

'Si je connais Harry' is widely recognized as a foundational catalyst for the Nouvelle chanson fran莽aise movement of the nineties. Dominique A utilized stripped-down, minimalist instrumentation and a distinctly unpolished, DIY recording approach to reinvigorate traditional French songwriting with a modern, indie-minded sensibility.
