Created in 2001 and found in the wine country of Bordeaux, France, Talitres houses an eccentric roster of wordly indie musicians from Britain (Flotation Toy Warning, The Wedding Present, Ralfe Band), France (Thousand, Raoul Vignal, Stranded Horse, That Summer, François & The Atlas Mountains, Verone, Kim Novak), Russia(Motorama), Georgia (Eko & Vinda Folio), Scandinavia (Taxi Taxi, Rubik), Australia (The Apartments), Canada (The Organ, Destroyer), and last but not least the US (Emily Jane White, The Walkmen, Le Loup, Swell, Idaho, Stars Like Fleas, Scary Mansion, Forest Fire).

Talitres also released in Europe The National’s sophomore album « Sad Songs For Dirty Lovers » (2003), and the «Cherry Tree » EP (2004).

The label also has a booking activity and a publishing branch.

For the most part, their songs are in French, and are reminiscent of the kaleidoscopic disco of Sébastien Tellier and the pop songwriting of Metronomy. Laurence G-Do, the quebecoise-vietnamese singer, takes on love in both its most naively simple and frustratingly complicated moments.

In 2010, they released their debut album, Origami, which found its way into hearts and blogs in Germany, Italy, Mexico, France and the UK, and propelled them to the top of Quebec’s independent radio charts. Following a meeting with French producer French Fox, Le Couleur approached him to produce their next EP. They also called upon members of French Horn Rebellion to participate in its creation, resulting in a sound that follows in Origami’s footsteps while still breaking new ground. Featuring their original French diso-pop sound, Voyage Love, released in 2013, brought Le Couleur to new levels of international recognition. The EP was warmly received and reviewed by blogs and magazines in over 15 countries and the group was invited to play a number of renowned festivals, including but not limited to Pop Montreal, Liverpool Sound City, and M for Montreal.  Voyage Love was also nominated for the GAMIQ (CA) prize in the category “Best EP of the year” and made a number of top 10 lists for 2013.

After a first tour of Europe in 2014, Le Couleur released "Concerto Rock"  - the first single from their new EP "Dolce Désir" released in February 2015 in several countries (CD, Vinyl, Digital). After some shows in North America (USA, Canada) and Europe (UK, Germany, France) Le Couleur won their first GAMIQ prize in Canada for "best electronic EP of the year". The band is now working on their first album due for fall 2016.
