Although what the name would indicate, Les Issambres is not a French band but rather a band based in Stockholm, Sweden. The name is borrowed from the small village of Les Issambres on the French Riviera. In Les Issambres the false Mimosa glows and the Mistral keeps the water of the Mediterranean crispy clear. Les Issambres music is often characterised as indie or folk. The sunny melodies of Les Issambres will make you happy and leave you with a small sting in the heart.
Les Issambres started out in 2001 and have released four albums on the bands own label, Fifth Week Records. A fifth album entitled Folklore of mine, will be released in october 2008.
