History

BARON.E is composed of Faustine Pochon and Arnaud Rolle, who are both from Fribourg in the French-speaking part of Switzerland.[1] The duo was formed in 2019. They have cited their influence from all forms of rock music as well as contemporary French music.[2] BARON.E sings in French.[3] The duo blends indie pop and electropop genres in their music.[4] After their single Un verre d’ego was listed in the best songs of 2019 by Les Inrocks, BARON.E started to receive international attention.[3][5]

Their first EP, Jeunesse Dorée,[6] was released on 13 March 2020.[7][3]

In March 2020 the duo performed on an American tour, including at the 2020 Francophonie Cultural Festival in Washington, D.C.[7] They were set to perform at the Atlanta Francophonie Festival on 25 March 2020, but the performance was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[5][8]
