The group L'Impératrice returns with an album that still resonates on the borders of soul, funk, electro, and disco.

An album called 

Tako Tsubo

 which delivers his stories of the heart, his questions and his look at the world in which we live. 

Publicity

In Japanese, “Tako Tsubo” literally translates to “Octopus trap”.

In medicine, it is also the name for broken heart syndrome, a dysfunction of the heart muscle.

Since March 26, 2021, it is also the name of the last album of a Parisian sextet whose chic and lascivious melodies - often accompanied by colorful clips in all senses of the expression - will once again enchant the dancefloors when they will finally reopen.
