After becoming a fully-fledged duo Fabien Guidollet and Delphine Passant quickly manifested the need to explore new areas although they first took their time taming the stage together. During this time they took fun gathering sound atmospheres (most of them can be found on the new album), a fusion of Croatian orchestras and French harvest festivals. They also participated in the Francofolies de la Rochelle and the C'est dans la vallée music festival in 2009. And now, after five years both long and short, they have achieved the second LP album, "La fiancée du crocodile"; the promise of a playful and fanciful world, successively extroverted and intimist.
For VERONE, soul-searching is intended and inspiring. They look for textured sounds so as to eventually smooth them over; they treasure J.J. Cale - the 1970s subversive Nino Ferrer who mode "Véritables variétés verdâtres", or the Scottish Beta Band fiddlers, and assimilate these influences to end up freeing themselves from them. All this builds up a vivid hotbed of creativity. Just like Lego bricks when destruction meane restructuration and retracing your steps is the way to wake. An entanglement of ideas meant to appropriate something different and escape from the surrounding conformity.
Fabien and Delphine brought together various musicians in studios and then blended their recordings with computers. In the end the mixing of arrangements and sounds with Fabien's and Delphine's voices made each song unique, each one being fashioned individually.
