Quinquis – "ADKROG" (Weekly Music Roundup)

Emilie Tiersen has had several names. Her first records came out under the name Tiny Feet, and before that her maiden name was Emilie Quinquis. That was before she married the well-known Breton composer Yann Tiersen. Now Emilie Tiersen has begun releasing music as Quinquis, and her first single under the new/old name is a brooding, electronic song called “Adkrog,” which is Breton for “start again.” The new song by singer and keyboardist Quinquis is part of our Weekly Music Roundup.
