RISQUE indeed is this fresh and quirky sound that strikes your heart-strings like a bolt of electro lightning! RISQUE is Nathalie and Huw, a new and vibrant, French and Welsh combo, wed to each other and their music. RISQUE's premiere release is the album TIE ME UP TIE ME DOWN out on the legendary SOME BIZZARE label in early 2008. They have some fantastic collaborations on the album include Billie Ray Martin, Amanda Lepore, Cazwell and The Ones from NYC, Pravda from Paris and the fabulous Marc Almond!

Their lavish sound comprises confident and robust driving rhythms, overlaide with sweetly exotic and ethereal vocals. Nathalie's (who is French as in the movie!) voice is spellbinding, somehow creating a lyrical synthesis of innocence and sensuality. Whatﾕs more, she intonates her lyrics in English and French, exuding a romantic pan-European aura. The couple's romantic liaison, together with their music, makes a RISQUE story. They met on a rock off the beautiful North Wales coast. To escape any Anglo/French feuding between their parents, the duo ran away on a moonlight-flit to Las Vegas. There they were wed, in the Little Chapel of the West, where Elvis was married in Viva Las Vegas. But the sound of music beckoned from Europe, so the couple returned to immerse themselves and play, in the club and rave scenes of Paris and London.
