COMMUNIQUÉ POUR DIFFUSION IMMÉDIATE
LES JUMEAUX TADROS SORTENT LEUR NOUVEL EXTRAIT REBEL,
ET SE REBEL CONTRE LE SYSTEME! Les jumeaux Tadros sortent un nouvel extrait radio accompagné d\'un vidéoclip intitulé Rebel. Cette chanson engagée se révolte contre la corruption, la brutalité policière, le gouvernement, etc. Les frères veulent prêter leurs voix au peuple qui se fait constamment voler et abuser dans un monde de plus en plus capitaliste. La chanson met en vedette le rapper O. TMC de Dubmatique et est un véritable ver d\'oreille qui vous gagnera avant la fin, c\'est certain. Un hit assuré sur toutes les radios et les pistes de danse.
Pour leur nouvel album, le duo à atteint une étape plus mature dans sa démarche artistique et dans son écriture. Daniel et Éric ont découvert un son plus pop/dance et nous montrent leur coté rebel. Ils se sont entourés de plusieurs réalisateurs chevronnés dont Luc Tellier (New Cities) et Peter Ranallo (Dominique Hudson, Nicolas Ciccone, Bobby Bazini).
Les jumeaux Tadros ont déjà 6 albums à leur actif et 300 spectacles partout au Québec. Ils ont aussi des centaines d\'apparitions télé et comptent treize ans de carrière qui se reflète dans l\'évolution de ce nouvel album qui verra le jour au courant de l\'année 2013.
Rappelons que leur denier album Vis ta vie, paru en 2007, avait pris naissance dans un incubateur sur l\'esplanade de la Place-des-arts devant des centaines de personnes. Leur plus grand succès Yo Quiero Bailar (2004) a profité d\'une énorme visibilité sur le pont Jacques-Cartier grâce à un immense panneau d\'affiche qui diffusait la chanson sur une bande FM 24h sur 24, 7 jours sur 7.
Que nous réservent les jumeaux pour la sortie de leur nouvel album en 2013? À suivre...
