Today, furthering their case as one of France’s hottest new acts, Kids Return (Adrien Rozé and Clément Savoye) shared a special live session with French luxury fashion house Yves Saint Laurent as part of their Saint Laurent Rive Droite live session series. Taking place on a rooftop with the dazzling Paris skyline as the backdrop, the band effortlessly flows through hits off their debut album, Forever Melodies, released last month via Ekleroshock/Hamburger Records (homes of Polo & Pan and Andrea Laszlo de Simone), with “Lost In Los Angeles”, “Melody” and “Am I A Fool ?”.

Forever Melodies packs nostalgia, staggering sincerity, and the duo’s limitless love for arranging melodies into ten skillfully refined tracks that touch on breakups, friendship, love, physical anguish, and growing up. It’s an intimate journey into space and time: the soundtrack of Adrien and Clément’s lives.
The name Kids Return comes from the Takeshi Kitano film by the same name, one that childhood friends Adrien and Clément immersed themselves in after being quarantined together in Paris in April of 2020, following a failed escape to Los Angeles. “The movie was our emotional milestone: sensitivity, naivety, melancholy,” the band says. This naivety and euphoria became the heart of Kids Return – everything that they create is guided by emotion – allowing themselves to return to these childhood feelings promised by the name they chose.
