BIRKII – Holy War

by Iker Jauregi

[wide][/wide] Raising french synth pop star Birkii featured on Kitsune Parisien II disk. Birkki is a singer « à la française » but more Breakbot than Edith Piaf. This former conservatory student was recently chosen by fashionista music label Kitsuné for their Paris compilation. Her single “Shade of Doubt” is both old and young, sweet and a little bitter. And the video features Birkii, a ‘gamine’ brunette, romancing a cardboard cutout of a cowboy Paul Newman. It’s strangely happy-sad — kind of like Birkii, a sweet voice floats over late ’80s rhythms. So now you can watch Birkii’s brand new clip “Holy War” directed by Mathieu Wothke and produced by Rods Film!
