About the Artist
The French-Italian duo, formed by singer-songwriter and violinist Emily Dukes from Milan and pianist, composer, and producer Noé Zagroun from Nice, has been active since 2020. Both artists graduated from Berklee College of Music in Boston, where they met and began collaborating. After relocating from L.A. and Italy to France, they have created a collection of songs that encapsulate contrasting musical moods. Their music combines cinematic atmospheres with American electro-pop, drawing inspiration from past styles and artists while primarily rooting itself in pop-electronic genres with an infusion of alternative rock influences. Through the manipulation of their own bass melodies, they craft a multi-layered sonic tapestry that showcases their adeptness in soundscaping—a true testament to their mastery.
