| Le couple a choisi le nom Bibi Club en référence à la discothèque dans leur salon, où leurs petits bouts, leurs bibis, viennent danser. Avec des enfants à la maison, Nico et Adèle devaient s'éclipser pour travailler à leur musique : cinq minutes par-ci, deux heures par-là. Ainsi, leurs chansons imaginent que les enchantements quotidiens d'une famille peuvent être liés à la piste de danse, à la nuit, à un lieu qui vibre encore au lever du jour. Dans Le soleil et la mer, Adèle et Nico façonnent une musique intime, honnête, pétillante d'une énergie qui anime même ses moments calmes, et inspirée par des artistes aussi divers que Stereolab, Suicide, Alice Coltrane ou Tirzah. Un son qui se prête aussi bien aux moments de fête qu’aux jours de pluie. Bibi Clubnous rappelle que si chez nous le temps est au gris, il fait toujours beau quelque part.

Preorder Le soleil et la mer
Adèle has been singing for others for years, notably with Nico’s band, Plants and Animals, but Le soleil et la mer stunningly and confidently reveals the extent of her skills. Bibi Club effortlessly moved from home to the stage, with infectiously easygoing, fun-loving charm. You can immediately feel this euphoria on the album, which quickly makes you forget about the worries of the daily grind. It’s summertime, come out and dance!
Today the duo also shares a new single and accompanying video, La nuit, premiering via Les Inrocks.
I imagined kids playing in a chaotic city, reveals Adele. Left to their own devices, these children do what they can to work things out. The resourcefulness of children somewhat inspired the lyrics. We often underestimate it. Kids pay attention to what surrounds them, they’re aware of the actions taken by adults. In the song I imagine them at night, getting together in the trees while everyone is asleep. I also imagined them dancing in the dust. Then it’s suddenly morning, way too early. We have to wake up, along with the sun rising, again. Too early. The night was rocky, but we must get up, the children are calling. But always with this backdrop of the sun and the sea, the light, the beauty.
Bibi Club is Spotify's RADAR Artist of the month for June in Canada. The RADAR program supports emerging artists through several initiatives on the Spotify platform.
The pair named themselves Bibi Club for the discotheque in their living room, where the couple’s bibis—their loved ones—come and dance. With kids at home, Nico and Adèle had to sneak away to make music: five minutes here, two hours there. Accordingly, their songs imagine that a family’s everyday enchantments might be loaned to the dancefloor, to the nighttime, to a place that’s still thumping as the day breaks. Throughout Le soleil et la mer, Adèle and Nico set out to create music that is intimate, honest, sparkling with an energy that animates even its quiet moments—and inspired by artists as diverse as Stereolab, Suicide, Alice Coltrane, and Tirzah. It’s a sound as ready for revels as it is for rainy days. Bibi Club will remind you: if it’s not sunny here, it’s sunny somewhere.
