Hi guys !

and we are going to answer now, let's go.

L.E.J

Q&A

What is is like to be nominated ?
(Les Victoires de la Musique is a french reward for music)

Honestly, we were overexcited,
(Les Victoires de la Musique is a french reward for music)

We were very happy, very flattered, very proud...
(Les Victoires de la Musique is a french reward for music)

We weren't expecting it at all,

to us, Les Victoires de la Musique would be

for the album, for another time, another year...

and here, as we got it as "on stage revelation",
it was really rewarding.

What novelties are coming up this year ?

We will make an album.

And a new show, as there will be new songs...

We say that in two sentences
but it's an enormous challenge,

it takes a lot of time.

When will the album come out ?

2017 for sure,

we don't really know when,

maybe after the summer holidays....

We will let you know anyway,

maybe some singles will come out before the album,

Let's try in September ?

Yeah, let's try.

In which style ? It will be our style,

it's not a style that we could necessarily express
when we were doing covers,

maybe some will be surprised,

I hope it will be a good surprise.

It stays cello/vocals,

of course we develop drums and basses
because we love that,

and because we can take more liberties

because it's our album.

What did you like the most during your tour ?

Family life in tour. It's awesome.

It's a bit like a summer camp,

we get attached a lot,

and we're very sad when it's all over !

We travel by bus,

so we were in a "tour bus",

we were about 13 or 14 people,

13 when nobody was squatting.

It's a bus with two floors,

down there is a sort of living room and a kitchen...

Don't believe that it's a living room and a kitchen
like at home,

it's in a bus, there are some chairs and tables,
a small kitchen,

and up there are bunks a bit like in night trains,

the beds are on top of each other,

there's not much place,
but in the end it's comfy.

You have like a small curtain,
you're like in a cocoon.

And in tour,
we leave around 1AM after concerts,

we travel by night, we sleep,

and we arrive very early in the morning.

When you wake up you're in another city,

and then, to shower and to eat,
it's in the concert room.

We have showers in our dressing rooms, guys.

The funniest memory from this tour ?

There's a quite funny memory,

for those who have seen the show,

it was in Nantes but I'm not sure,

so at the beginning of every show,

we used to enter by the concert room,
where the public is.

So always the three of us, in a triangle,

and we came on stage.

So, from time to time,

we had security agents who accompanied us
in the public,

because we couldn't see anything.

Clearly, I can't see where I'm going because of my size.

So we arrived in front of the stage,

we went over the barriers with a stepladder,

and after, we go on stage, the three of us.

And in Nantes, we were walking,

the three of us went of stage,

we arrived on the stage,

and when we turned,

we saw, in the middle of the stage

and under the only spotlight,

a security agent, standing,

who didn't know what to do.

Poor him, all alone, at the front,

and his boss was yelling at him like,

"piss off !"

He must have freaked out so hard,
poor him !

On top of that he stayed like for ages

because he didn't know what to do,

he was like "do I go there ? oh no I should go there"

and he was blinded by the spotlights !

It was so funny !

What was the best surprise from your public during the tour ?

The last date, obviously.

In Rennes, they had printed placards,

with "thank you" written on it.

We were really not expecting it,

so at the end of the concert
as usual we thank all the team,

and at the end, we see 3000 people
raising placards saying "thank you"

and that was really too much.

It was the last date of the tour,

I couldn't stop crying.

She was looking at me like
"I can't play anymore", the tears flowing...

The impression of getting 3000 thank yous

just in front of you it's just....

And right after our manager performed
a slam poem,

for us, it was really touching.

Do you plan on releasing the music sheets
of your songs ?

We're gonna do it.

Who watches TV shows ? Which ones ?

I watch Naruto, I surprise myself.

It's actually good, and very funny !

Aside, I watch stuff like

Revenge, Walking Dead, Under The Dome,

I've got to start Orange Is The New Black.

Black Mirror, it's a basic !

Game of Thrones, another basic,

I just began Jessica Jones, and Luke Cage,
all things Marvel.

What is your favourite music ?

I listen a lot to "Réalité Augmentée" by Nekfeu.

By the way, all of his album "Cyborg" is really cool.

Plume, Solange, Frank Ocean, (inaudible)

"Consideration", Rihanna.

Which one of you cooks the best ?

Juliette !

What's your biggest dream ?

To win Les Victoires de la Musique.

Personally, just that all of this
keeps going and never stops.

To be able to perform world tours...

Yeah !

Can you impersonate each other complaining ?

Elisa doesn't complain, she shouts !

"Hello Cyril ? No no that's pissing me off !

No, I woke up at 7 in the morning,

I didn't sleep,

I'm tired,

so no no no, no no no !

It ain't gonna go this way !"

That's so accurate !

I don't like waking up, I don't like mornings !

It appears that people who complain a lot live longer

because they externalize their pain.

Lucy doesn't complain.

She does, it's like :

"OK, OK.

As you want. OK."

It's not really complaining,

it's like,

"No no no, if you wanna do this this way,

I'll do it this way.

No no no it's okay."

(inaudible)

For Juliette it depends.

When she "cutely" complains she's cute,

like "oh I'm pissed off".

Juliette doesn't complain. She's sharp.

"It pisses me off."

That's it ! Like :

"Not a all"

"Bullshit"

"I never said that."

"Now I don't wanna play."

That's it ! That's it ! So accurate !

"I don't wanna play, so I won't play."

I don't know which one if worse...

Or, she is funny.

"What ? I'm not doing that I don't care bro !"

What do I cook you for lunch ?

-I want a "raclette" !
-I want sushis.

Let's challenge him !

A cauliflower tiramisu.

No, something good !

Jigmé, next time we see you,

bring us a spéculos Tiramisu.

Thanks everyone for your questions,

we'll do it again soon,

and we'll keep you informed for the Victoires.

Tchao !

Bye mates !
