The Limiñanas

With a rumbling combination of fuzzy organ, twanging guitar, half-spoken/half-sung vocals, and vintage analog production, French duo the Limiñanas capture the darkly romantic sound of classic French pop of the '60s, then send it shooting off in new directions informed by Italian soundtrack music, psychedelia, Suicide, and country-blues. Their 2010 self-titled debut album laid down their template, and each subsequent release tweaked it in interesting ways. The subtle acoustic approach of 2013's Costa Blanca, the neo-psychedelic Malamore from 2016, and the skillfully arranged songs found on 2025's Faded are examples of how they continually expand their sound while staying true to their origins.
