Rouge Foncé (pronounced roozh fon-SAY) are a new dark cabaret rock band from Melbourne, Australia. They are a five-piece band comprising of: Lola Jane (vocals, acoustic guitar), Michelle (bass, vocals), Weezel (keyboards), Sarah (drums) and David (lead guitar). Formed in late 2008, they have exploded onto the live scene in 2009-10, playing at venues such as Ruby’s Lounge, the Esplanade, the Arthouse, DV8, The Barwon Club (Geelong), IDGAFF, the Brunswick Hotel, and more. They have supported many artists including Yohosie, Dave Graney, Final Serenity, and The Vultures of Venus. They have received airplay and been interviewed on a number of radio stations including 3WBC 94.1 FM (Box Hill), The Pulse 94.7 FM (Geelong), 3CR 855AM (Fitzroy), and SYN FM 90.7 (Melbourne).

Rouge Foncé bring provocative vocals, haunting melodies, and macabre storytelling rock to the burlesque revival scene. In the spirit of bringing together the worlds of rock and burlesque, they often have burlesque dancer KerryX perform during their set. Once described as “The Dresden Dolls meets Hole”, their live show is not one to be missed.

Great track guys and gals. Gutsy sound! Reminds me a bit of of Concrete Blonde, and believe me, that is a GOOD thing. Love the vocals too. Well done ...
