“In 1970, two childhood friends with a shared passion met a misfit farmgirl with a knack for guitar on a trip
to Montpellier. What started as a self-titled collection of the pair’s musical tinkering was about to be, well, a thing —
a spacey, rocky, multilingual, God-knows-what sounding thing. A lucky break secured the trio a deal with
Disques Vogue, sending them on a years-long enterprise as the cultish weird girls of the French music scene.”
- Annette Perreault, Rock & Folk Magazine, 1976 (tr. Leon Davis)
Welcome to the website dedicated to archiving the French-American rock band Lavender Valley.
As a seasoned writer and translator, it's become apparent that I must preserve the memory of le vallée.
Somebody has to.
Enjoy your stay.
