Singer, songwriter, and French pop enthusiast April March started out in the early '90s cutting her version of the classic yé-yé sound, making a splash with the song "Chick Habit," which turned up in Quentin Tarantino's Death Proof and her debut album, 1999's Chrominance Decoder. She soon branched out to make garage punk with the Makers, jangly indie rock with Los Cincos, orchestral pop on 2002's Triggers with producer Bertrand Burgalat, and surfy psych with Steve Hanft on 2008's Magic Monsters. No matter the setting, March's innate sense of style and her charming voice fit perfectly, even when mixed with swirling psychedelia (2013's April March & Aquaserge), Afro-pop (2021's In Cinerama), or a variety of retro soundtrack styles, as on 2023's April March Meets Staplin.
