| New Orlean's Genre Bending Ensemble Bon Bon Vivant "Radiate... Charm" (-Glide) on single "Sin Eater" out today Bon Bon Vivant (BBV), the genre bending New Orleans-based indie band, release their new single, "Sin Eater, " today! A song about devotion inspired by the ritual and role of the Sin Eater, it's "a vivacious and cutting number that radiates urban charm and mysterious magnetism. There is a rhythmic prowess in Bon Bon Vivant's sound echoing gypsy punk and jazz voyagers like DeVotchKa and Lake Street Dive." – Glide Magazine "We have presented a macabre love song with the concept of the Sin Eater, taking on the weight of another's burden, " says songwriter/frontwoman Abigail Cosio. She illiterates the calling to go into dark depths with unflinching dedication for someone you love. "I'll be your sin eater." Led by songwriter/front-woman Abigail Cosio and saxophonist/vocalist Jeremy Kelley, Bon Bon Vivant's musical identity is freewheeling and bold, pulling liberally from the storytelling of classic Americana, the edge of indie rock, and the unshakable groove of New Orleans. They regularly deliver thrilling performances, transforming venues into communal gatherings where revelry and reflection can coexist. "The power of playing live is the power of human connection, " Cosio notes. "It's like painting in a cave until you get in front of an audience." BBV honors this "Bon Vivant" philosophy and the city where they live, New Orleans, with woven stories and a dynamic rhythm section. The band experiments with high energy dance music and dark, sensual melodies with lyrics like "start living now while you've got living left." This music lives in the duality of enjoying the light because the darkness is always near! Bon Bon Vivant are on tour throughout the spring and summer with additional new music and videos on the horizon. Visit bonbonvivantmusic.com for more information.
