Heloise and the Savoir Faire - Trash, Rats and Microphones

Heloise & the Savoir Faire - Trash, Rats & MicrophonesThe playful debut by this New York electro-rock outfit has much going for it, including guest vocals by fan Debbie Harry, of Blondie fame, and a release on Elijah Woods’ Simian Records.
