Manu

At the end of the 1990s, Dolly had been one of the revelations of French rock, with songs such as "Je ne veux pas rester sage" and "Quand l'herbe nous dévore". A blend of rock, folk and country, the Nantes-based band inspired by the Pixies and The Pogues came to an abrupt halt in 2005 when bassist Mickaël Chamberlain passed away. It was a year before ex-members of the band re-emerged under the name Manu, inspired by former Dolly singer Emmanuelle Monet. The album Rendez-Vous, released in 2008, was followed by a long tour, summed up in the live CD/DVD Rendez-Vous à l'Elysée-Montmartre, released in 2010. Manu's second studio album, La Dernière Étoile, released in April 2013, is pre-empted by the track "Que fais-tu". This was followed by a tour during which, for the first time since the end of Dolly, she played a song by her band again. In 2015, she returned to the studio to create La Vérité, her third album.
