The fall US/Europe tour is over and we'd like to thank everyone who came to our shows for coming and all the great bands we played with for playing. You've made our last month or so wonderful and we'll see you again soon.

But for now we record our next CD so look out for that sometime next year! Bon Soiree!

For Planes Like Vultures. Here she is, enjoy:

You will be missed!

2008-06-04T08:23:00.000-07:00

We're sad to announce the departure of two of our cherished bandmates. Nicole Keenan and May Tabol are heading for greener pastures: Nicole has chosen to finally turn her sights to her first passion, working in the field of social justice with such organizations as Co-Op America, and May has decided to take a break in order to work on her own music, which she's had to patiently put on the back-burner for the last year. her music can now be heard (and hopefully soon in great abundance!) at www.myspace.com/musicforpree.

It's been a swell ride with the ol' lineup, but Le Loup respects their decisions to try on some shiny new boots. We love you, May and Nicole, and look forward to seeing your future accomplishments!

Hello friends -

A few weeks ago Le Loup stopped by the KEXP studios in Seattle and played an on-air set. The nice folks have posted the performance here, along with a lovely article. Enjoy!

PS - thanks to everyone who came to see us on our tour over the last few months, you were wonderful.

NPR has named Le Loup the #1 unknown act of 2007! Check out the article here: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=17523144.

We're incredibly flattered, especially to be included with the likes of friends/great bands Georgie James and Yeasayer.
