Биография

Under the anagram The Rodeo, Dorothée has been curating her discography since 2010. An exercise in self- exploration that her fourth album, Arlequine, refines and reveals with the confidence of someone who has left doubt by the wayside. In nine baroque, complex and catchy French pop tracks, the singer-songwriter- composer unveils her many faces. Truly multi-faceted, she is as much a performer on stage as she is an artist in real life. She plays with appearances instead of falling victim to them. Backed by a group of loyal virtuoso musicians, Arlequine marries melancholy and melodic clarity, anger and orchestral density, mourning and pop idealism, in ambivalent songs with powerful choruses that paint the portrait of “a battle-hardened woman with a smile (…), a woman warrior with makeup” (“Arlequine”): resilient, resolute, reborn. The Rodeo has played all over the world (Europe, USA, Canada, Brazil, South Korea, Taïwan) and shared the stage with many artists (Salif Keita, Stereophonics, Villagers, Nada Surf, The Do, Kazu…). She’s involved in the european program Keychange for more parity in the music industry. Album Arlequine (Claro Oscuro / Modulor) RELEASE : February 17 2023
