THE future belongs to Minuit (Midnight in English), a Parisian band lead by siblings Simone Ringer and Raoul Chichin. Their parents, Catherine Ringer and Fred Chichin (who passed away from cancer in 2007), formed the influential and eccentric 80s and 90s pop rock duo Les Rita Mitsouko who worked with Jean-Paul Gaultier, Jean-Luc Godard and Sparks.
With a flashy and groovy style, Minuit debuted in 2013 and deliberately followed in the footsteps of their parents. Who can blame Simone and Raoul to reactivate such a fabulous sound? , A French contest ‘Sosh aime Les InRocKs lab’ recently attributed, among 2000 candidates, the special jury prize to the young band. Don’t look any further, the real French touch is here, all you gotta do is to be on time. See you at Minuit.
