AaRON is without doubt THE French revelation of 2007. Duo Simon Buret and Olivier Coursier have been writing a collection of catchy pop songs in Paris since 2004 and these can now be heard on the debut CD 'Artificial Animals Riding on Neverland'.
The group had its breakthrough with the single 'U Turn (Lili)', a song from the film soundtrack for Patrick Lioret's, 'Je vais bien, ne t'en fais pas', which was a surprising hit with French audiences. The film premiered in Belgium at the Ghent Film Festival in 2006, and thanks to its success the single 'U-turn (Lili)' went on to become a massive summer hit on Studio Brussel and just about every French-speaking radio station.
This album of dreamy pop songs with English lyrics sold more than 200,000 copies in France, earning a double gold disk. And in Belgium they were awarded a golden record for selling 15,000 copies.
On 26 November, after a few festival concerts (Les Ardentes, Dour), AaRON performed at the long sold out Koninklijk Circus. Time then to spare for an extra concert at the AB on Monday 17 March.
