French comedy/soap for teens. A bit like Saved By The Bell but French.

Actually maybe a bit more like Pugwall.

Their guitarist, Eric Fitoussi, was responsible for the sound of Lizzy Mercier Descloux's 'Press Colour', coz he played guitar on it.

Err, no. Post-punk/New wave French band, appearing on the Mutant Disco comp and kinda affiliated with the Ze Record imprint.

four years pass...

Hélène et les Garçons in a postpunk band would be excellent! Anyway, I've been digging these guys lots recently, especially the "Divorce" album when they ditched Marie and switched to Ze-style disco rock:

Though oddly enough, it seems "Divorce" was one of their releases that was not on Ze (big Philips logo top right).

three months pass...

In an unexpected (?) development, Garçons seem to have reformed:
